i sometimes feel really short. i'm a single mom, i work, i go to school for a master's degree, i have four pets (including a dog), friends and family, and sometimes i think i would just love to hide away. but we manage these things... its good to vent and get it out when they feel like too much. oh, and on top of it, i am trying to manage my inner control freak... yep, trying to control the control freak in me
. you're not alone in this thing... i don't think there is some magic answer, its just that, as cliche as it sounds, its part of being alive: truly present, even if being present makes you want to pull your hair out sometimes.
