No time, too tired

My life currently consists of:

  • working (work is extremely busy and intense right now; breaks are too scarce),
  • eating (as quickly as possible; if it's not already made, then whatever takes the least amount of time),
  • taking the girls to and from daycare and their activities (preschool, dance, swimming),
  • parenting (just a little before work, after work, and before bed, it seems), and
  • sleeping (as much as possible; I can no longer function after 8:30 or 9:00 pm--I'm just on a short sleep break right now).

If it weren't for Neil's help, the house would be a complete disaster and I'm not sure what the girls and I would be eating or wearing. I've never felt so busy--or so tired--in my life.

I know my life won't be any less busy in the future, but at least I won't be so tired for most of it. When I'm not expecting, I'm perfectly content to artificially boost my energy with caffeine! Only three more months of being pregnant. How I wish I could just take it easy and enjoy these last fleeting days of pregnancy.

P.S. My email is out of control. If you've sent me a message lately, I'm sorry I haven't replied!

This is the meaning of success. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
