Never be a Single Parent

I was going to make this a Facebook status but then I thought, what the heck, I'll make it a blog entry.
So I learned today that there's not way I could be a single parent. I babysat these twin girls all day yesterday and then again from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm today. I didn't have any major meltdowns. They listened fairly well. All-in-all it was a good experience. After yesterday I was exhausted. I actually would have gone to bed immediately but Aunt Joy wasn't home and I didn't want to shut my door on the dogs. Thus, I remained downstairs, waiting for her and eventually caught my second wind watching Numb3rs. Today, I walked across the street (they live right across the street), plopped my bag down, stole the blanket from my sleeping aunt and laid down on the couch. She asked if I would walk the dogs for her and I said no. I was totally exhausted. I probably fell asleep in less than a minute of her getting off the couch which was less than five minutes of when I returned. And today was a good day. Can you imagine how exhausted I would have been if I'd had a bad day? There's just no way. I need a relay partner to tap me out and take over.
