Does this shutdown feel like it’s been going on for years instead of months, or is it just me?
I don’t even have any children at home that are driving me nuts and I feel like I’m losing my marbles.
But it’s all gonna okay, right?
Until we can get back to our regularly-scheduled lives, let’s enjoy hilarious tweets from moms and dads who are slowly unraveling and can’t wait for this whole fiasco to be over.
Get ready to laugh!
1. Check with Google.
Days have no meaning anymore…
8-year-old: Hey Google, what day is it?
Me: It's sad that you have to ask.
8: Then you tell me.
Me: Let's see what Google says.

3. Who the hell did this?
This is gonna get ugly.
This morning I found some peanut butter in the jelly jar so let’s just say the next family meeting is going to be tense.

4. Who’s ready to play Monopoly?!?!
All I hear is groans…
I wish someone had told me this parenting law:
The more excited I am about an activity with my kids, the less they will care about it.

5. You gotta love it!
That soothing sound…
Me: Ahhh, the sounds of summer.
My kids: *opening and closing the doors 1,000 times*

6. You’re scaring the children!
Might not want to do that again.
My friend told me she puts on a fake smile when she’s sad and it makes her feel better so I just tried doing that too and now my kids are scared of me.

Boredom can be good sometimes…

8. Don’t ask so many questions.
Just go with it, okay?
Me: I actually love having a storage unit. The house has never stayed this clean for this long.
Husband: But it looks like all our stuff is still here.
Me:
Husband: Please tell me you didn't leave the children in a storage unit.

Now, that is HOT.
Husband: Tell me a fantasy of yours.
Me: So you go back to the office for work.
Husband: And?
Me: And?

11. That sounds nice right about now.
It needs to happen ASAP!
When do kids learn to go and play nicely by themselves for a while?
Is it never?
It feels like it's never.

Like straight to HELL.
And the oscar for best actor goes to my toddler, for his harrowing portrayal of “satan”
