iulani's Journal, 08 November 2016

My morning walks are my salvation. I am getting into overload here. Caring for two elderly people in two separate households is starting to get to me. Meal planning for them and me and Hubby...it all works, but the constant errands and things on my "to do" list is sometimes daunting. OK...now for the good news...I only work part time, so the extra hours I spend cleaning and caring for others, is ok...I am not doing it on top of an 8 or 10 hour day! My dad's badly infected toe IS getting better, FINALLY, and maybe he'll be able to get out on his own for a few hours a day. I know I could count on my sons or daughter for a thing or two if needed. I'm just a bit tapped out. Loving my exercise, but I am really tired of the dieting or way of eating or the constant thinking about what to eat or not to eat!!!! Oh, yeah and then the holidays are right around the corner....I can almost hear the sleigh bells!!!! Is anyone else feeling like this???? I'm gonna go relax and have a better day tomorrow. I'm just tired and ready to admit I am overwhelmed sometimes.

Caregivers need to be sure to take care of themselves, first and foremost, sweetie. Schedule yourself a facial or a massage, stat!

Glad your getting out. Haven't we had the most amazing sunrises lately??!All too soon it will be cold/brisk and there will be snowflakes to keep you company and that beautiful peaceful silence that accompanies it. A.M. walks are the best :)

I agree with Mskestrela. You may also enjoy a mani or pedicure. Around here a pedicure includes a lower leg and foot massage. Yes, I had been feeling tired of the concerns about what to or what not to eat.
