There are just not enough hours in the day for this crap...

Ever had the feeling you just want to run and hide, let others take over your never ending list of responsibilities and just do something that Me, Myself and I want to do? Just be left alone to be quiet, thoughtful, creative and non-combative. That's how I'm feeling currently. Just tired of the constant barrage of people, noise, demands, chores and duties that are sapping my energy until my head is saying please just let me be!!!!!

Some may be wondering what the heck, McG, you love your job and your family, you love to blog and take pictures, you live a perfect little life, how come so glum???? I don't know, that's the point, there are just some times even the things you love can get you down. It's probably just 'one of those days" and I'll get over it but my GOD I would kill for a little time just to be left alone and not have to justify what I am doing or feel guilty because I really should get that laundry done, or prepare a meal, or make sure the pantry is full of stuff for lunchboxes, or feed the dogs, or take dogs to the groomers, write thank you cards, unpack boxes of crap we don't need, recycle closets, take stuff to goodwill, put stuff aside for yard sale, trim the hedges, clean out the car, pay bills, sign weekly school reports, help with a report on rocks and minerals, blah blah freakin' blah.

OK got that all off my chest and I'm out of time..... have to get some of the above done... see ya later alligator!!!!!!

Whew! I hear ya, Ali! When I get that way, I generally hit the tub... Hubby is generally understanding, although he has yet to ever lift a finger to DO anything about it! :P

It's your body telling "you are tired"... give yourself a minute, stand in the cool shower and think of a waterfall with your eyes closed... clean your head of any thoughts, think of nothing but "you are standing under the waterfall, and just stand as long as you can. It'll seam like hours to you, but in reality it'll be couple of minutes.
You'll exit the shower room as a happy, energetic and powerful women again!
That's what I do!

this could be me ranting today! Why can't I just be left alone and not have to justify myself anytime I want time to myself...no one else in my family has to do that...they can do whatever they want whenever they want! ugh!
