I am exhausted and I feel like I can barely lift my hands to type. I am hoping this is just a virus that I need to shake. The fact that Maggie seems to be following suit makes me think it is. I have felt pretty out of it and sometimes that can lead me to feel pretty disconnected and negative. For some reason, not this time. Maybe it is just where I am in life and the work I have done in important relationships.
Rick is very different than I am and sometimes I can get extremely frustrated with him. We have done a lot of work the past few months on our marriage and so I feel we are at a stronger place. He just came up to check how I feel and we took a couple minutes of quiet time to touch base on important issues like the Easter Bunny and his baskets. The past couple of days have been a bit chaotic b/c I have struggled to keep up but Rick has done what he can to fill in the where I have dropped the ball.
My babies are also older so it is easier to curl up and play quieter games with them. Or curl up and let them run crazy circles around me. They are much more independent and so I can take a couple minutes to close my eyes. Plus I have great kids who I truly enjoy. Being with them even though I am beyond exhausted is still a blessing and fun.
I am right where I want to be in my life. I have days, like recently, where I feel like crap. In the end, that all passes and I am still the most blessed woman ever. I am blessed b/c I have such a wonderful life filled with love, faith and hope.
