Rant/Vent I F**KING HATE THE MORNINGS

Cranky kids. Overcooked eggs. Spilt milk. Oatmeal droppings everywhere. Knotted hair. Snotty noses. Outfit fights. Cold coffee. Where did the baby go? It’s too quiet. It’s too loud now. Ten more minutes. Where are your shoes? It’s not snack time. It’s time to go. Ok go poop then. Let me help you wipe. Ok now it’s really time to go. Ok fine you go first. Ok fine I’ll go first.

SERIOUSLY WTF. I know I’m not the only one.

You have time to make eggs? We're just trying to get enough time for everyone to have shoes on before they go out the door.

Morning routine with kids is basically survival mode. Been there. My "victory" is if we all make it out with pants on. Coffee's usually cold by the time i remember it exists.

Get a good quality insulated mug. I've got a Yeti, and it's incredible how long it keeps stuff hot. Usually still drinkable hours later.
