Just so you know this is an exceptional day.

Most of the time Sometimes I have a really really hard time getting everything done. Especially since summer vaK started. I have been SO off this summer.

I think it's starting to make me insaaaaaane.

I'm having withdrawals from Routines and Schedules and Lists.

What happened to my organized self???

I feel like I've been making just enough effort to get by. Not enough to be *excellent.
Or even really good. Just enough... and sometimes... barely that.

Not that I'm just sitting here doing nothing. I'm still busy.

But more like AutoPilot busy.

I've been struggling with wondering wtheck happened to the passion I had.

Sometimes I get So tired of trying to be a good wife.

I mean that literally. Some days it.is.exhausting. Physically. Mentally. Spiritually. Emotionally.

And I just want to be D.O.N.E.
Not Foooorrrr-eeeevvv-eerrrrr
Or even for a long time.
Just for a little while.

I don't know if it's the nature of being an excellent wife in general that I'm having such a hard time with or specifically trying to be an excellent wife to my husband.
Cause he does NOT always make it easy.

I'm thinking I just must not be too good at this whole wife thing if I'm constantly having to work SO hard at it.

It should be easy sometimes right?
Right???


P.s WOOOHOOOOO Women of Faith ... 2 WHOLE days awaaaayyyyy ~ in 6 days :)

    I can totally relate. Sometimes when I'm washing dishes for the 99th time in a day I wonder what my life would be like if it was just *me*...after a vision of a closet JUST for shoes I realize things would be much more boring, even if I were much more stylish. ;)

    I only have 2 children and I struggle some days. This summer vacation thing, while it is relaxing on one hand, can also be VERY trying on the nerves!

    Glad your days have improved. I understand the day from hell. Sounds like we had a day from hell at the same time. And I miss the routines too due to the longer summer days and kids being off of school. My son is still on the same schedule but his neighborhood friends aren't and that's tough.
