No Time for That: A Mom’s Reality Check
You know that feeling when you’re knee-deep in parenting chaos and you can’t help but think, “Ain’t nobody got time for that“? Yeah, me too! Sweet Brown might have gone viral with her catchphrase, but it rings true for all of us moms. So, with a wink and a nudge, here are 30 things that remind us just how little time we really have:
- Singing “Happy Birthday” twice while washing hands? By the time I hit the second line, my kid’s already off exploring the toy aisle.
- Shopping? Forget leisurely strolls through the mall. Amazon.com is my best friend now.
- A 90-minute Bikram yoga class? No thanks, I’ll pass.
- Blow-drying the back of my hair? Who really looks back there anyway?
- Clipping my kids’ nails? I’ll just hope they don’t end up with scratches until they figure it out themselves.
- Massages? Ha! That sounds nice, but it’s a luxury I can’t afford.
- Costco on a holiday? Not a chance! Just no way.
- Oil changes? Is that light on my dashboard really a thing? Ain’t nobody got time for that.
- Putting socks on little feet? Can it take any longer?
- Speeding tickets? There’s a reason I was in a hurry.
- Trying on clothes? Yeah, I’ll just buy it online and return it if it doesn’t fit.
- Small talk at school? Just get to the point already!
- Getting sick? Nope, not an option for moms.
- Couch potato time? Only if I’m folding laundry at the same time.
- Hangovers? The kids don’t care if you’re feeling rough; they want their milk now!
- Drama? That’s for before kids. Now, it’s all about survival.
- Anything labeled “gourmet” or “from scratch”? Count me out.
- Sewing? I’m not a seamstress; the dry cleaner has my back.
- Cleaning the car? What’s the point?
- Photo albums? I’ll take a million pictures but organizing them? Ain’t nobody got time for that.
- Makeup? For what? Just to wash it off later? No thanks.
- Waxing? Sure, I’ll do it, but I’ll probably miss a few spots.
- Teacher conferences in preschool? “He’s good with crayons”—really? I’ll consider Ivy League once he can hold a pencil.
- Marathon training? Three-hour runs on weekends? I could be sleeping instead.
- Bento boxes? Ain’t nobody got time for that level of lunch prep.
- Jury duty? There should be a mom exemption for that.
- Car troubles? It feels like a personal crisis.
- Phone issues? Honestly, I’d rather deal with car trouble.
- Boo-boos? When they’re little, we fuss, but after a few years it’s just, “Here’s a Band-Aid, kiddo.”
- Sex? Let’s just say, it’s a rare occurrence.
