*Pinched your eyelid in your eyelash curler.
*Gone to the ATM and driven away WITHOUT your cash.
*Made sandwiches for you kids to take to school and then remembered it’s hot lunch day.
*Lugged you butt out of bed to start the day, hit the shower, only to realize it was Saturday.
*Gone to the store for milk, spent $100.00 on Groceries..but not picked up the flipping milk.
*Walked downstairs and not been able to remember what you were on your way to do.
*Left laundry in the wash….for 2 days.
*Slept all night with your pajama top on backwards.
*Run to the mall with spit up on your shirt.
*Worn the same pair of pants two days in a row.

Congratulations you have joined the ranks of the tired Mamas.
Go ahead, make yourself a strong cup of coffee. You’re gonna need it.

    4. I don’t even have kids and have done all that. This morning I woke up and thought it was Saturday. Is it?

    5. Haha.. I’ve realized that my PJ top (or bottoms, some nights) were on backwards, but have been too tired to fix it.

      I haven’t done some of these, but I’m still just starting out in the parenting game. I’m sure I’ll get there.

      What about sticking the mayo (or something similar) in the cupboard after making a sandwich, only to find it the next morning? That happens a lot around here.

    7. Oh my gosh, walking to my computer this morning, I realized my pj top was on backwards! ha ha and here I am reading about my tired mommy brain, so true!

    8. lol! I’ve only not done one thing which is the school lunches because none of mine are in full time school yet….but i bet i will when they are! A great post! x x

    11. Done them all except for going to the mall with spit up on my shirt. But I’ve probably just blocked that out. Glad to know I’m not alone. Thanks for the laughs 🙂 Can’t wait to tell fam about this!

    13. every flipping time I go to the grocery store I forget the one most important thing that we just ran out of, like toilet paper, milk, wipes, juice, whatever. Everytime. darn mom brain!
