I am typing this and as I put the words onto the screen I am watching Boston and her cousin, Bracken, tornado-fye our house (yeah, that isn't a real word but it was the best I had for that). Last night was one of those nights I went to bed just overwhelmed and the worst is I woke up with the same feeling.
I have Boston's school to take her to three days a week, her dance class one day a week, trying to make sure I still do plenty with her myself, my job, and trying to fit in some sort of actual social life... along with about 5,000 other things. Being in charge of your own life is hard, real hard, but then adding in a whole other human tips the stress scale. I guess I didn't realize how much easier life was when Boston was younger and just taking her to a babysitter while I was at work was the most she didn't and we hadn't added classes and activities in yet.
My planner is marked in, the calendar has events wrote in and I know as she gets older we will just get busier. If you have any suggestions on how I can be less overwhelmed and how you manage everything I would gladly accept your advice. I have found out that McDonalds will now serve breakfast all day (what a time to be a live) so that comforts me a little bit but I still need suggestions.
This overwhelmed mamma just needed a small vent session.
