Blurry

I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Every day of my life is one big blob of getting up early, work, more work, walking, more work, highways, children, homework, Tae Kwon Do, dinner, work, more work, more walking, trails, hurty knees, dishes, more work, making lunches, and collapsing.

To complicate things? People in my life are being weird. It's...challenging.

I mean, I guess it's good. But it's weird. It's unexpected. It's sort of like if someone called you an ass the first two hundred times they saw you and then the 201st time they called you sweetheart and gave you a big hug.

It's odd.

I don't know if I like it. Or trust anyone. But that could just be the exhaustion talking.

I totally feel ya on the craziness of life right now. I have to drop off and pick up at two different schools, soccer practice (games start next week), Brad wants to join Boy Scouts, and Abi is learning to play the saxophone!

Totally understand your exhaustion. I'm pretty much exhausted every day too.

I say we vacation!

Sarah echoed my thoughts. Sometimes it feels like we need a vacation just to have time to make sense of life. Ugh.

Peace.

And hoping you get some rest.

I feel this very same way every single day but with other variables thrown in. I hope things get better for you soon, you better be taking some time out for you though...

get some sleep honey... sleep deprivation does a number on the mind and emotions. When I had baby #3 after two bouts with post partum depression my specialist told me that the single biggest factor in "healthy emotions and well-being" was getting enough sleep.

At the time I wanted to kick him in the crotch and yell at him to get the hell out of my room. What I ACTUALLY said was "ya, you gonna hire me a nanny?". He laughed. Jerk.

Anyway, I know it is true... as impractical as it is. I know you have sleep troubles (yep, me too) but feel free to skip that 4 am wake up call a few times to catch up on some sleep!

hugs to you. We won't be this tired forever...

right?

Girl, you need a day off. Under the covers. Covered in moisturizer. Seriously. I hope you feel better.
