I ended up taking a break Monday and Tuesday for what I'm calling mental health days. Translation... take the kids to the sitter, put my fuzzy slippers on and take a nap. I feel AMAZING. There is this thing.. called sleep.. and?? It's glorious!! I have no clue what I ate, how much I weigh, or what today is but I feel amazing. This is what happens when you have two small children, a job and a farm. Sleep days should become required for everyone. There would be less cranky people if we had sleep days.
Anyways.. I will get back on the ball tomorrow. It would have been today but I was still in happy sleep mode and had no motivation whatsoever to plan meals today. Now I've had sleep and I have motivation and I know I can do this! I'm going to have a kick butt farmers wife body that will make all the city girls jealous.
Speaking of jealousy. Is it wrong to hate a woman but not know why you hate them? Maybe hate is too strong a word. I don't hate her.. I just want her to not exist. Is it wrong to wish the Martha Stewart of farmers wives would just go away? The farm hand has a new girlfriend who by all accounts is alot like me only younger and more.. I don't know future farmers wife but on crack. I swear all the girl can talk about is having tons of babies. She made her own greek yogurt. Made it from the milk from our farm. She made hard cider in her kitchen a little while back. She raises chickens in mass quantities so she can have farm fresh eggs. I don't know if it's a tiny bit of jealousy or just the fact that she's a Martha Stewart type but she irks me. She's now taking pictures of the farm and our cows and our farm cats and posting them on facebook which also irks me. Granted they aren't my kids but that's my home. Maybe I'm just jealous I'm stuck at my desk all day while she's playing wifey at the farm. I just don't know! I need to figure it out before I randomly flip her off for no apparent reason and claim it was a finger spasm.
New weightloss motivation? Look better than the Martha Stewart Farm Wife wannabe. It may help with those middle finger spasms if my butt is perkier than hers.
Yes I have issues. I like my issues. They keep me company at night.

Sleep is especially incredible when you have small children. As to the Martha Stewart farm girlfriend remember, she is playing... she doesn't have a family with children to take care of and full time job plus helping out on the farm. You have 3 full time jobs she doesn't have one....

LOL - SHE does not have a full-time job and farm chores - let's see how Martha Stewart she looks with three kids and a job...and then cow manure!

Good for you to stay home and get some sleep!! As for FFW, I agree with the others, just want until she has a kid...everything changes!!

I am so jealous that you got a couple of mental health days!! I was just telling a friend that I could really use some time to myself. As for your competition...let her be that” perfect wife”. I know it's hard when you feel like you are being out-shined. Remember, she’s still in that new relationship-trying to impress stage. Her energy may or may not fizzle out someday. Only time will tell but stop wasting yours on comparing yourself to someone else. You are the perfect dairy farmers wife, just the way you are. Hubby wouldn't have married you and started a family if he thought otherwise. Your energy is needed for much greater things. So put your middle finger down and hold your head high! You are the perfect YOU!!!

Know how it is, trying to do everything for everybody; nothing seems right; and you never finish cause there is always something else to do. Everyone else seems to manage better. I remember baking bread every weekend, now I am lucky to remember to buy at the store.... Do your best, and forget everyone else.

I agree with others, the girl doesn't have a family to keep her busy right now so she has more time, and probably sleep, to do all of those things. Someday she may slow down, but I know people who have families and work full time and still do amazing things, and they really irk me too, but I just don't have that drive. Some people are just born with more energy and drive than others, and it's okay. You still do an amazing amount of things, so don't sell yourself short. You are just smart enough to make your life a little easier where you can, like buying eggs and yogurt. :)
