Are you a candidate for {Crazy Cream} ... know the signs!

As moms I think we can all agree that life is just plain crazy from time to time. Whether you work outside of the home full time or stay home and wipe butts all day like me... life's constant demands on our time, emotions and sanity can easily take over our bodies and turn us into crazy crazy women (hoping that just not me:)). I remember one time when monkey #3 was brand new I went back to my doctor sure that something was terribly wrong... I knew I had a brain tumor or something terminal because I was strung-out, exhausted and losing MY EVER LOVING MIND (before you judge, I know I'm not alone in this... someone just posted the other day that she did the exact same thing!!)... Anyhooo... my doctor kind of laughed and told me she had good news... I was just tired from having three kids. Great! At least some sort of diagnosis would have given me a reason for my out of control bi witchiness. After nearly three years of doing the three kid thing I can say that while some of my "symptoms" have disappeared... others are still alive and... well... thriving today. (again... my poor husband) 


Last week I hosted an Arbonne party and I was introduced to something I'm sure will change my life for ever... Crazy Cream (do you here the angels singing??)!! OK, apparently it's technically called "BALANCE" but I'm sure they would officially change the name if they ever meet me in person... Two things... 1) I have not yet tried this miracle  in a tube (although my husband has volunteered to slather it on me if I ever forget once I get it.)  2) I don't do sponsored posts ... so I'm not secretly trying to brain wash you in to purchasing your own loopy lotion:):) Now that we've got that clear...


Here are 6 signs you might need crazy cream too...
  1. You often experience more that 5 emotions in a 2 minute period... (this is a fun one for the whole family to enjoy:))

  2. When they have questions, your kids and husband approach you like they are getting ready to feed a wild animal because they're not sure which of mommies several personalities will answer them.

  3. You get a crazed psycho smile on your face while saying things like... "Oh you'll eat it... You'll eat it and you'll like it." (this could just be a symptom of a mommy funk as well)

  4. You forget what you're talking about mid sentence. (see also ...ummmm ..... "mommy brain")

  5. You tell yourself your just PMSy... for 12 weeks straight. 

  6. You have left the house with 2 different flip flops and mascara on only one eye more than once. (Again reference "mommy brain"... as symptoms may over lapse.)

Don't freak out... these can also be symptoms of simply having kids, being a new mom, or having female reproductive parts in general. However, if they persist, you might think about finding a crazy cream of your own... trust me, your kids and husband will fully support your decision!





New To The EMM Blog?
Just in case you're new around here I thought I'd introduce myself.... I'm the scattered crazy Earth Monkey Mom Lindsay:) And this is my family. My kids never have clean faces, my house is usually a mess and I always have 3-15 loads of unfolded laundry sitting on my couch. I post here on Wednesdays ... Gena the "with it" organized but still whacky EMM  posts on Mondays... and then each Friday we have a different guest contributor... always a mom... sometimes funny sometimes inspiring and always real. We're glad you're here and we hope you'll stick around... More than anything we want you to know that none of us have it all together... and wether your kids are 40 or 4 you're not alone in your journey through motherhood!
