It's not that type B doesn't have a spot in my heart, it is just spread out across the entire thing lately insomuch that my type A is huddled in a corner in a fetal position rocking back forth repeating, "It's going to be okay. It's going to be okay."
Yeesh. Sometimes I would like to tell my type B to take a hike, but it just sits on the couch eating a cupcake or five. I tell her scoot or else and she looks at my face and just bursts out laughing in a mocking tone.
Com'mon type B, give a girl a break. I don't mind you visiting, but this residence is driving me slightly insane.
It is time I turned from a sit back and watch the flowers grow person to a doggedly determined person that allows nothing to stand in her way--least of all a cluttered house. My kids will have piano lessons. My house will be clutter-free. I will fix meals that are tasty, daily. I will have a consistent schedule with the kids. I will throw away that annoying hula hoop I heard go by my door when my kids are supposed to be asleep.
There you go Type A--have a gallon of "five hour energy." We'll get through this and usher type B to her vacation resort somewhere in the Caribbean. We can do this dearie. Don't worry. Here, here is a wheat grass smoothie. Yum. We're so [gag] healthy. This will be great. I am in charge here. I can do this. I can do this.
Please tell me I am not the only one that feels like this some of the time.

I totally just laughed at this post because I think my Type B has taken residency since I became a mom. I didn't even know I had a Type B. But here it is reading blogs at midnight. Thanks for the laugh. You are most definitely not alone.
Mel, I busted up reading this. You are hilarious! And I know exactly what you mean. I am very much a type B and think fondly of all the stuff I could accomplish if only I could engage in some type A for a day. Wish we lived closer and I'd come and eat cupcakes and watch TV with you, too!
You are so funny! I love it! I married type A so there would be some kind of balance in our house:) And, yes, I can totally relate.
Hahaha...i think type B is taking over right now!
