Aug. 14, 2006 - Do you ever just feel...
USED. Like if you did actually succeed in working yourself to death from the constant onslaught of MESS and careless junk scattering, that they might notice you were gone... but only because their laundry piled up enough??? Or maybe its just the PPD rearing its ugly head... sigh...

Aug. 14, 2006 - Sometimes...
Posted by cryskey
It's rough trying to hold it all together sometimes. Especially if you have a newborn nursing around the clock! : )
It helps me sometimes to stop and look at my messy house in a different way. I'll ask myself, "how many women would love the opportunity to have these little ones to clean up after?" I try to remind myself that I am very blessed to have beautiful, healthy kiddos wrecking the house, of course I only have 2 small ones. My big one is a big help! Try not to neglect yourself too much, take naps when you can, get some rest, that mess will still be there in the morning (unfortunately).
Sometimes you have to look out for yourself so that you're able to look out for the others. If you feel yourself getting down, stop and pray ask for His guidance and comfort. And I'll pray for you as well, after reading some of your posts, we may have a few things in common.
God bless you, take care of yourself so that you will be able to care for your family.
