My Life/ Down and Out!

It has been one of those days. Not as busy as I anticipated most of the Daycare kids are out sick with the nasty virus that's still going around. I only have 3 extra kids besides my own, but I can't hardly smile today. I feel alone today. Almost like I am so tired of everyone expecting so much from me I am disconnecting myself from everyone. I feel like no one really knows how I feel at times. I have so many things going on right now. I'm trying to be there for so many friends, loved ones I just don't know where to start. I feel like so many things are just expected of me. I carry everyones burdens on my shoulders. My sister is spending very little time with her son and so that puts more pressure on me. I know he is not my son but it's not his fault that any of this is happening and I just want him to have a good life. I want him to be loved and well taken care of. I just don't know what to do anymore. I feel like I have no one to talk to. It seems like everybody wants something from me. I have a couple coming over tonight with their new baby that I might start watching in May so I have to snap out of this.

Keep your chin up, Shelly. Take a few steps back from it all, take a deep breath and remember who "you" are. Put everyone else's problems in an imaginary big box, tie a huge ribbon around it and drop it into the deepest part of an imaginary lake.

Try your utmost to spend some time to yourself and for yourself...pick a time...anytime...just shut down from all that is going on around you.

Let me know how the diary goes with your daughter. :)

i understand how that feels.. it seems that sometimes when people call your name it is to ask for something. :)

But just try and take some "me" time.. destress a little, things will feel much better afterwards.

Hey, just checking out your blog. You left a message about adding my blog to your index. I would like my blog added, but have no idea what to list it under. Your blog has a nice layout to it.
