Is it just me?

Feeling tired all the time. I'm so not motivated to do anything lately. Seems like my job's not going anywhere. Housing market is so bad we can't sell. Junk keeps accumulating at home, kids are growing up fast but not fast enough. Gas prices and everything else going up. It's so draining! I don't know what to do with myself.

This is how I feel today, minus the kids, mine are good today LOL. All week I've been getting more and more swamped, because I'm too tired to concentrate on anything.

I'm so there too. My kids are actually cooperating today, so I should count my blessings....

My little man has been a pain in my side for the past three weeks...he needs to quit it...it's wearing me out...

My 3rd and LAST DD is a terror! She's going through her terrible 2's at 22 months. She's non-stop these days, doesn't take a nap till late afternoon/early evening. I don't know how to keep up with her, let alone support the family on what I make if this career doesn't go anywhere. *Sigh*

I have been feeling the same way. just drained. must be the heat. It's been SO freaking humid here lately. they say we are getting a break tomorrow. lets hope so. our central air quit working the other night and when i went outside to check it the hoses had ice on them. according to my dad (cause i call him whenever things go wrong like that, lol) when its really humid out they sometimes freeze up like that. i shut it off for the night and it was fine the next day. hope the weather lets up so i can give my poor air conditioner a break.

Hang in there, Sam! Is there someone available to take care of the kids for a bit to give you some momecharging time? ordinarily, I'd say you need some retail therapy, but with the economy the way it is, we're all trying to squeeze more out of each dollar. Maybe a peaceful hour in the tub and a manicure/pedicure in some happy color you like?

Nettie - I did the mani/pedi thing last weekend and it was good while I was there, but going back to real life and the routine of things it just wasn't enough to get me out of the funk I'm in.

I think I need to add something else, like taking dance classes that I brought up a while ago. That might give me that umph I need, I can lose weight at the same time. I actually looked at what's around but the only feasible class is not till later in the evening, when we're getting the kids ready for bed. Not that DH can't do it, but he a SAHD, so when I get home the kids are all mine.

That's one of the reasons I've been putting off going to school. I'd have to go to class straight from work and I wouldn't see the kids at all the day I have classes. They're so young right now you have to do everything for them!
