Could have nervous breakdown, but don't have time!
Feeling so overwhelmed these days. So much to do and so little time. Not getting enough sleep isn't helping me stay focused either.
I get up at 6:00 am, have to have daughter to school by 6:45. Get home and have about 45 minutes til first daycare child gets here. I have 2 babies, ages 5 months and 3 months, they cry all the time. I have one 2nd shift kid til 11:30 pm. My husband does help with her while I go to my grandmas (she's 98) nearly every night to get her dinner.
When I do get to bed shortly after 11:30 pm, I can't get to sleep for about an hour. Then I get up and start over the next day.
I have two kids on saturday for about 4 hours, and on sunday for 9 or so hours. Having to have kids hours I don't want to because if I didn't, the daytime enrollment is not sufficient financially. We are trying to sell the house so I can stop doing childcare, but til it sells, I feel pretty stuck. I wonder each day, just how long it is gonna take to sell the house. I can see no relief until house sells!
I do go to my al-anon meeting every tuesday and I get away on thursdays to go bowling with my friends.
Then there is the general household duties, laundry, bills, shopping, cleaning, etc. There should just be more hours in the day. Wonder what I could do with them!
Wow, feel better having vented this.
Al-anon tells me I need to take care of myself first, but there is so much other stuff to do. Taking care of myself is what I could do with extra hours in the day!
