Life's challenges can add up
As much as I try to post the happenings of our lives, life itself seems to get in the way. My job it keeping really busy throughout the day, I get home and have to feed everyone, pick up, and then it is off to bed. Day in and day out. On the weekends it is about the house - whether it be projects or simply doing weekly chores. No time to relax, think or enjoy stuff. I pay attention to Addison as much as I can but it can be hard when the house is nasty. There is so much to do and not enough time, that it is really getting to me. Working full time, having a one year old, and trying to fix up a house really leaves no extra time. I did start taking a couple of cardio classes at the gym, which is nice while I am there and Addison gets to socialize with other kids, but it just takes away from the thousand things that need to be done around the house or spending time with Addison. Any suggestions out there for me before I pull all my hair out? :)

My first suggestion: take a deep breath and then give yourself a pat on the back! Each one of those things is a full-time job, working, being a mom, fixing up a house - no one could get all that done!
One of the best pieces of advice I ever got was to think about your priorities and then evaluate how much time you are giving to those things that are most important to you.
Hang in there! Call me when you want to vent or chat!
You have your hands more than full. I feel like I am never going to get it all done and I am not working outside the house...you are a superwomen. Try not to be hard on yourself, think about what really matters. No one cares if the house isn't perfect and Addison will only be this age for a brief time. You are amazing!
