a day in the life of a step mom

 I'm a 1950's housewife with a slight modern twist and a stay at home step Mother scrap the Mother part, sounds like I am a cruel nasty evil witch like in the old disney films i was brought up on i would say i was more like a Mommy and Auntie and Best friend to two wonderful children, I've started a blog as i have a few moments of peace each day when the children are playing and my two german shepherds are asleep, im 21 nearly 22 (may) im waiting on heart surgery to try and correct my WPWS and SVT hence why im just a housewife and a stay at home mom, i'd love to get back to work but ive got enough work of my own like ive said with the two kids who are 3 and 4 and two dogs which are 5 months and 7 months so really still puppies even though they are massive already, i was sat at my laptop one night thinking what i could do in my spare time the cleaning had been done cooking had been ate, baths had been given and the kids were fast asleep the husband (mr wing chun) was having his hour after work to have a shower and shave his head and face, the dogs ((Nuk-WGSD and Rocky-B/TGSD) were in the garden doing what dogs do best, and i came across a blog and it was saying about this woman who was a single mom and she didnt work and she started wrighting a blog and it was one thing she could do in her spare time without leaving the house with the children, so i thought id give it ago myself as i always used to write in my younger days and i enjoyed it very much. so here is goes.

my alarm goes off ah 7:45am just incase i'm not up by then, i go to the bathroom brush my teeth throw on my house coat and head down stairs sort my dogs Nuk the white german shepherd girl sleeps in the living room sometimes she may do a mess and sometimes she doesnt, today was a mess day, so i grabbed my detol and bleach and cleaned it all up at my, nuk sits by the sofa giving me her submission cower and then quickly glances up at me with her big beautiful multicoloured eyes and i melt how can i stay mad at such a beautiful girl shes my baby, i head into the kitchen when im greeted by my massive bog rocky he is a standard black and tan german shepherd but i think he may be crossed with a bull mastiff or great dane because is so big and his one ear still flops when he jumps up me i moan at how heavy he is and then he continues to give me the puppy dog eyes and i think to me self how could anyone beat this handsome loving boy the things that had happened to him break my heart and im so happy i found him, i take the stair gate off the door frame and nuk and rocky greet each other and then run to the back door and rocky opens it for nuk nd she goes out and has a quick run around then comes in and sit by the stairs waiting for the children to come down but their sound asleep still so help myself to a coffee and sit down in peace for at least 10 seconds then nuk jumps on me and tries to steal my coffee who knew a gsd would love coffee so much!

i check the time and its 8:30am the children are just starting to come down stairs saying they need breakfast and a drink while that i should do them some while they play, cheeky i know but you got to love them i get them to say their please and thank yous and i continue to do their breakfast today its weeto's i used to have them when i was small with the nutty professor person and a ship of some sort, as they finish their weetos they spill theirs drinks without fail every morning luckily we have woodern floor and its easy to get up but its white so therefore im cleaning the floors every hour, i go to sit down and then ive got to get back up again to feed the dogs which is a job in it's self nuk in the hall rocky in the kitchen these words to my self like a mantra just so i done forget because its still morning and i have been able to drink my coffee due to nuk so im still sleepy and dizzy.

we watch tv for a couple of hours the normal shows like BEN 10, PEPPA PIG, FIREMAN SAM AND this new STAR WARS cartoon/ computer graphics show and its so strange just like BABY JAKE whoever wrote that was deffo high on something, have you noticed that childrens shows are so noisey and loud and everything moves so fast what happened to good shows like when i was a kid, fireman sam was narrated so was noddy the old shows were more like a story now a days a child is lucky to know what a story is my step kids didnt know what a story book was! by 1:00pm its lunch now the fight is on! get the children to eat their lunch and have chocolate after is hard work they cry and scream somedays they love having lunch but today isnt one of them days, they refuse to eat their sandwich , they want sweets instead but i force them to eat their lemon jam sandwich and after i give them an apple a banana some grapes and then some chocolate fingers just to keep them happy, after they go and play giving my time to catch up on my shows like NEW GIRL, TANKED, TRUE BLOOD, VAMPIRE DIARIES AND AMERICAN HORROR STORY And THE WALKING DEAD, i also catch up on my reading.

by 5:30pm the dinners have been ate the cleaning have been done and now im just waiting for my gorgeous husband to walk through the door his coffee is waiting the house is spotless the kids are looking through the window to catch a glimpse of their very much loved daddy before he comes through the door, ive had a busy day the children made loads of mess the dogs were play fighting all day no matter how many times you tidy toys up its pointless untill its nearly noneyes (bedtime) so ive started waiting till they are eating their dinner and puddings to tidy their toys away, im in the kitchen when i hear the front door open my heart skips my legs go weak how can he make he this excited after so long everytime i see him its like im seeing him for the first time all over again i love my husband so much. he comes through to the kitchen kisses my dearly and slaps by bottom and takes his coffee and sits at the kitchen table to fuss the dogs as they get so excited the children know to wait until rocky has calmed down to come into the kitchen otherwise he would knock them down, i love seeing mr wing chun hold his children and play with them its so nice to a loving father like him.

10:45 its time for us to go to bed the kids have been in bed for hours by now me and the husband are having our cuddles on the sofa infront of the tv watching various shows and bits of films we both play a game on his phone i know its silly but we laugh and giggle together at this game, we head up for bed after saying noneyes to my babies the dogs, and we go and tuck the children in and kiss them goodnight and once we slip into bed  we cuddle and were sound asleep, that night i dreamt of dogs dinners and shoppinh and the strangest one was nuk turned into a dolphin i will have to get my dream bible out for this one.
