The struggle is real! I just have no patience, I feel like i am always irritated, annoyed, angry, etc. With my family, with life, with the pandemic, with school starting up and still having no idea what the expectations are for me and for students, with racism, with everything really. And I don’t want to actually spend the remainder of my pregnancy like this. I want to enjoy the quickly passing remaining days of summer vacation and of being a family of four. Not sure how to reset myself in this. The hubs suggested a forest bath, which I am down for, and trying to only focus on one task while he is at work (maybe a daily cleaning task) and everything else for when he is home. I think that should help actually. Fingers crossed tomorrow is off to be better start.
Gratitude:
- Healthy big boys
- Made a decision re moving / staying (staying!)
- Emailed the landscape guy to move forward with that project

- Some quiet alone time this afternoon
- Two weeks of vacation in front of me
- Projects are happening
- New (to us) paw patrol toys that the boys were so excited for
- Hubs was home at a decent time
- Life
Affirmation: I am good enough as I am. I am important to those who love me. I am a good person and a great wife.
