My Patience is Thin, My Red Bull is Hot, I’m Barely Awake, and Everything is Pissing Me Off.

You know those mornings where the universe just decides it’s your turn to be the main character in a dark comedy? That’s been me every morning this week. What’s happened this week?

Let’s set the scene:

• One twin is screaming because the other is sleeping.

• The six-year-old is somehow already has said Mom 20 times before he opens his eyes.

• And me? I just took a sip of Red Bull so warm it could double as soup. Chef’s kiss.

• My deodorant melted on my glasses… don’t even ask.

• The heat… the MF humidity…

• The great muffin war of 2025 because Zoey needs one for each hand,

• My kids awards program I completely forgot to tell anyone about… I didn’t talk to his friends Parents to get thier contact info… YES APPARENTLY IM HIS SECRETARY.

• And every night this week… bed time has sucked… that’s a whole other post or podcast 🥹

• And just when I thought things couldn’t get worse… here comes this monthly bitch 🔴

At this point, I’m not running on caffeine—I’m running on fumes, sarcasm, and the vague memory of a full night’s sleep from 2023.

Everything is annoying me. Zuri’s nails are so sharp they have cut my lip… I clipped them 2 days ago. The sippy cup I just tried to make slipped out my hand on to the floor. And don’t even get me started on the laundry pile that’s beginning to resemble Everest but with less chance of survival. I think I’m wearing the same shirt from yesterday… Fuck it

I know, I know. “Enjoy every moment.” “You’ll miss this one day.” No offense, Karen, but I’d like to miss it now, thanks.

Here’s the truth: not every day is Instagrammable. Not every moment is magical. Some days (or week in my case) are just loud, sticky, chaotic dumpster fires—and that’s okay. That’s motherhood in its most honest form: messy, maddening, and filled with tiny people who simultaneously drive you nuts and melt your heart… usually right after they finish screaming about the wrong color straw.

So here’s to the moms whose Red Bull is warm, whose patience is nonexistent, and whose children are suspiciously quiet right now (go check—seriously). You’re not alone, and you’re doing better than you think.

Even if today, everything is pissing you off.

Happy Friday. As if that means an end to anything…
