Unofficial Mom: PYHO {Never Enough}

PYHO {Never Enough}

Another Pour Your Heart Out with Shell at Things I Can't Say.

There is never enough. Never enough money, energy, sleep, time with Pie, hours in the day...you name it and it is likey in short supply at my house. Well, as long as you don't name bum size. That we have plenty of...

I'm still trying to figure out this whole mom/working full-time/school full-time thing. So far I'm not doing a great job. I'm stretched to the breaking point, exhausted beyond reason and feeling more and more guilty every day for the time it's taking away from my family.

I haven't found that place where I feel balanced. I'm not totally confident that place exists. Lots of things are falling by the wayside, namely my connection to the blog world. I haven't been able to post as often as I used to, I haven't been around commenting on other's blogs, I haven't been around for some friends who have big exciting things going on. And I have no idea how I'm going to resolve that.

I love my blog. I love having this space, and the community of bloggers I have found. I love the friends, yes real friends, I've made through this place. And I am feeling the lack of connection to them lately. I'm hoping that I can find a way to be present in my real life and my internet life. And while I struggle to figure that out, while I'm not around as much...I hope you all know I'm thinking of you and hope you'll stick with me until I get my Wonder Woman powers back and can do it all.

xoxo

First time visitor so I'm not one of those people you feel guilty about because you haven't had time for me. :)
Seriously, it sounds like you have so much on your plate right now. No words can equalize the balance for you. I can offer reassurance that this too shall pass. Life will become more manegable or we just get more experienced handling it all.
As hard as it is (almost impossible at times) try to find a tiny time for yourself...free of guilt or demands. For the days you just cant do that at least stop and breathe. ..deeply ...until you feel yourself calming a bit. Really! It works! lol

I am the same way and my blog falls by the wayside at times. It's ok. You have enough on your plate and don't need to worry about us. All of us will still be here when you do find time. I've learned that and everyone understands that real life does take precedence over blogging!

It's so hard to find a balance. The beauty with blogging is that you can step back a little and then jump back in when you are ready.

Sara, please. We all go through this and it's nothing to be sorry for. My post today was along the same lines, there's never enough time. Ever.

XOXO.

You sound like you have a lot on your plate, so I hope you are able to take care of yourself, whether it means taking a break from this space or skipping laundry to be here. Either way, good luck with finding your balance. It's tough trying to be Wonder Woman!
