Today I am so incredibly tired. I had a terrible night sleep, a job interview in the morning
and a busy afternoon. I’m just exhausted
and achy and not in the mood for anything. While emailing with a good girlfriend, I just started
making a list of all the things I am tired of. By the time I was finished I actually felt SO much
better! So, here is my list and
some of my favorites from hers. I
really encourage you to make your list. It’s like blowing off
steam. I would love for you to post
your list in the comments section too!
Here goes…
I am tired of…
Figuring out what to eat for dinner
Making breakfast
The dirty carpet
Getting my hand in Oliver’s
poo poo diapers
The constant fear of SIDS
My loud white trash neighbors
My husband's annoying traits
Breastfeeding
Pumping
Not sleeping more than 3 hours
Worrying about the bills
Being a fat post partum blob
Having nothing to wear
Postpartum acne
Not having a girls night out
of wild and wickedness
Not being able to drink too
much and hating myself in the morning
Television
My feet and back being sore
ALL OF THE TIME!
Cleaning the house and most of
all bathroom
Not having a career I love
Constantly working at having a
good attitude
Complaining when I know it
could be so much worse but not really living my life that way…
Forgetting how temporary
everything really is.
My girlfriend’s list…
300 cable channels and
NOTHING to watch on TV
Asking my husband to start the dishwasher
in the morning
Seeing clumps of cat hair and
cat puke throughout my house
Being a wife
Buying lottery tickets and
never winning
Moles
Not being able to get a
massage every month
Never having any money
Worrying about everything!
The price of gas
My husband leaving work late
everyday
Seriously, having a bad day? Give making a list a shot and see how you feel.
The real test I suppose is then
figuring out how to eliminate the list all together…
