out of steam

I keep telling myself,

"I think I can! I think I can"

I'm running very low on steam.
I have been trying to pick my battles,
which are always my kids-
they are #1 to me.
but that is all.

I hate this feeling.


I want to wake up early,
work out,
read my scriptures,
shower,
be dressed and ready for the day-
before my kids even wake up!


I am no where near close to being able to do this.
It's very depressing.
I am trying to tell myself,

"Remember- just take one day at a time.
This will pass- patience."

Then I remember,

wait....
I don't have any patience.

:)


I'm working on it.....

  1. You have no idea how much I can relate to this right now. Like you, my health issues are resurfacing and I feel like I'm struggling to keep my head above water. Hang in there! I know how you feel!

  2. I hope all moms can relate to this.... right now I don't have health issues interfering, but still I can't remember a day I have been home with my kids and been able to reach any of those goals you listed (that we all have) and patience sweet patience- I haven't found that just yet either! I am more than happy to help out on the days I am not working! Of course I will not be showered, I won't have read my scriptures yet and my house will be in its mildly messy state, but my boys and I would love to help and have friends over to play ! :)
