Re: Confession Friday
I'm spread so thin with work, being a mom and being a wife. I try to take me time on Sundays but every time it gets screwed up. My to do lists are a mile long. If I don't ask for help, h gets mad. When I do ask, he says I'm barking orders and he gets mad. I've been using my pumping time at work to just cry. I finally wrote it all out to him via text. Don't know if it will help, but at least my feelings are out there.
/pity party.
Update:
After opening up to H and telling him everything that's bothering me, he's been trying hard to cheer me up. He's offering to help more, and not snapping at me. E even slept 6 hours straight last night which was glorious.
I accidently stumbled upon the erin condren life planners on YouTube. They are pricy, so I just started using my regular calendar, and I ran out of room with my lists. So, I bought myself one. Happy early birthday to me. I think if I find organization and routine I'll feel better.
I also signed up with flylady which helps you clean and declutter your house. It's usually little things each day (15 mins). This week is master bathroom.... So fitting, ours is a disaster. I also asked Jeff if I could see if my cousin's 15 yo daughter would come and be a mother's helper 1-2 Saturdays a month. This way I can clean... And once I get comfortable with her, she'll be our date night babysitter.
Tl;dr - I'm feeling better, and doing things to help find organization and routine. I think I'd feel less stress.
