How Do Other Mom's Work?

There is always a time during a month that I hit a wall and I feel like I am barely above water. I don't understand how other mom's make it work. Between my three kids I can't seem to keep up with all their needs. There are many mom's that have more kids, do more than me, and have more challenges. I have both Camden and Dallin needing occupational therapy and speech therapy. I keep them going because I do feel that it is helping them a lot. However it is challenging to make those appointments weekly. I felt Brooklyn needed something other than attending her siblings therapies weekly. I signed her up for a Fall Volleyball league. I volunteered to be the assistant coach. I did it for the love of my daughter and the sport. Is there ever going to be end to all this running around? I know people will say enjoy it while its here. I think it is pretty hard to feel joy when most of the time I feel like a chicken running around with its head cut off. I think I might make one of these calendars. I have my electronic calendar that works some of the time. I think the act of erasing daily task might motivate me more. Here's to hoping I have a productive day.

  1. I'm totally with you...I don't like the way I feel like I'm always in survival mode.

  3. I'm with Ali - ALWAYS in survival mode! Although I wish you didn't feel the way you do (because I know it stinks!), it's nice to know I'm not the only one feeling like a crazy woman. Good luck!
