Not feeling real good today. I really just want to go home and back to bed. I am just feeling really overwhelemed with life and all that I need to do. I won't bore you will all the details but I just don't know where to even start. I attempted to start a list and put things in priority but everything seems to be top priority. Work is out of control, the house is out of control, the kids are out of control, and my emotions are out of control. I have been dealing with some female issues that won't go away. I did get an appointment on the 12 with the gyn. I am going to a new one becasue I am tired of my family doctor putting me on birth control and telling me my pap is fine and everything will be fine. Anyway a whole other long story.
I did tell my boss I was going to be late and went to Wal-Mart and got some healthy food for the rest of the week here at work. That was a good step. Now I just need to shop for the house becasue we came home from vacation to a 1/2 gallon of milk, box of Cheerios, 1/2 a bag of cheetos, 2 cans of chicken noodle, and a bag of nasty halloween candy. The church ladies are throwing me a house warming sometime in the next two weeks so I can get the kitchen things like pots and pans. Then I can start cooking at home. Hopefully I get a crock pot because I love to put stuff on in the morning and come home to a fully cooked meal. Anyway, I just need to get my act together and get things done.

Since you mentioned church, I assume you are a believer. My faith is being severely tested right now, but I am clinging to the fact that God Is In Control. I am sharing this with you because I so identify with your journal entry today. Someone gave me a card with Hebrews 11:1 on it and I keep it next to my computer at work. Faith is being sure of WHAT WE HOPE FOR and certain of WHAT WE DO NOT SEE. I pray that you can shake off that overwhelming feeling and take today one hour at a time, one thing at a time.

It may seem that everything seems to be top priority, but make a list anyway. I find that it does help. Just take one day at a time. You have been through a lot lately. Hang in there and try to get a little extra sleep. I know it's really hard, but you are stronger than you think. You are invincible. You'll be ok. <hugs>

Gug speaks the truth. Take some me time and relax. One day, one item, one thing at a time. We're all here for ya. Stormi

I am comforted that you are able to identify some positives-you got healthy food-exactly what you need to stay on point as you deal with everything that seems to over whelm at the moment. Yeah-the gyno appt. sounds like a priority. Trust your instincts. Also agree that making a list is a good thing-even if it only means you have something from which to check things off so you can see that you are making progress.
For me, when I have a load of stuff to do-time seems to contract and it feels like I will never get anything done "in time". The truth is-things get done-in the time it takes to do them.
Don't forget to breathe-nice deep breaths in through the nose down to the tummy, hold it for a few seconds and then blow it out through the mouth. I know it's the last thing we want to do when we are anxious and feeling rushed but it is really worth a try.....
I hope you get that crock pot. I have one and have been thinking about taking it out. You have inspired me to do it. I agree-how nice would it be to come home to a warm meal?!

Ohhh you really need to drop HUGE hints that you need a good crockpot! I agree with what has been said already. I make a list and check things off and add them on. I call it my "never ending" list because there is always something that needs to be done. Thank goodness they don't all need to be done in one day! Your health is important so good to know you got that gyn appointment and that you got some healthy food. Don't let some doctor tell you that you are just being "emotional"... I hate it when they do that! I agree also, you are a lot stronger than you think.

How about making a registry list?? Do they do that for house warmings?? lol They should! :) Please, yes, share a to the point "needs" list with someone in charge and you'll be blessed with needs and more! :)

I hope that you get all that you need. Keep taking care of yourself and your kids. Things will turn around and get to be less stressful. Easier said than done. I can tell you this, while everyone else was stressing about Y2K, I could not wait for it and felt such a HUGE relief, like a ton of bricks were lifted from my chest the moment the year changed. May seen wacky, but 2000 was a pretty good year! I may be due for another :)
Hope all is well, talk with you soon!
