I've finally hit a wall
After 2 sick kids with RSV (three year old and 10 week old), a sick dog, 1 ER visit, a doctor appointment EVERY day this week, being thrown up on more than 20 times, countless loads of puke-filled laundry, and a total of 5 hours of sleep since Sunday.... I think I've finally hit a wall. I'm so exhausted, I'm emotionally on the brink, and I'm mentally drained.

I've been there before and I feel you. Just take a deep breath and think. Think about what is really important. I know you must have loads of things you can do (and should eventually do) and all those are clouding up your mind. Just sit and think what NEEDS to be done right now, what can be left for a little later today, what can be left for tomorrow. You are not being lazy or procrastinating. You are saving your sanity. I've always found that taking a break just to hang out with my kids, even just to watch a movie on Netflix or read them a book, does wonders for my sanity. They are little for such a short period of time. So take a break, sit down and just enjoy life for a while. The dishes can wait ;)

Thank you! :-)
I put the three year old down for a nap and fed the baby. I had my eight year old do his homework and I went upstairs and did my nails. :-) DH is home now and is going to stay with the kids while I run to Target to see what I can score for Christmas.
