I just need five minutes!

The lack of sleep I expected. The inability to keep any portion of my house clean for more than thirty minutes wasn't a surprise. The elevated noise level, the refusal to eat anything but fruit snacks and popcorn, the need to buy 5 gallons of milk a week. All of these are relatively easy to tolerate. But I do so look forward to the day when I can go potty in peace, without hurrying myself to the point of hemorrhoids.
