Dear Friend,

I get these episodes, where in an instant my mind is 'SNAP, SNAP, SNAP! GO, GO, GO! BZZZZZZZZ!'

I'm trying to do a handful of household stuff, a handful of mum stuff, thinking of finance, housing, investments, employment school registration, daycare transfers....
pizza sauce on the floor, shreddies as far as the eye can see, I have to pee, haven't had a coffee, whining-----fighting------laughing, stepping on diapers or mushed banana.
What are we doing today? What groceries do we need?

I can feel my patience run thin, and feeling slightly flushed. My eyes literally are scanning the room I'm in, to the point that I almost can't even see where I'm going.

ALL IN AN INSTANT!....this happens almost everyday.

Although this is enough stress to lose your cap in a New York minute, i does get easier.
Some and most times, I lose a cap. But every now and then, I can stop, close my eyes and just fucking breath.

If I can accomplish this on occasion, then in time it will come naturally.

  1. I can totally relate. If only we weren't restricted to 24 hour days. On second thoughts, that would just mean more stuff to do. Work has a way of piling up to fill every free moment we may have.

    Good luck with your list. I hope I can tame mine as well :)
