More Than I Can Handle?
I'm experiencing serious mommy brain at the moment and I wouldn't be surprised if I turn into an incoherent lunatic sometime soon. With extra stressors thrown our way this week, and 2 kids that just keep going and going and going like they are supercharged on sugar I feel like I just may be losing it. At least I know I'm not alone or that's what I've read recently anyway. I keep hearing that saying or whatever, that says God doesn't give you anymore than you can handle. Well, let me tell you, that is a load of BS. Seriously. Does anyone really believe that?
Any words of wisdom? Right now things suck. I'll get over it. I know that. Venting OVER. Ok, I sort of feel better. Thankfully, vacation comes next Tuesday and for a whole 8 days I can pretend everything is the greatest. Plus we will have help with the boys ALL week (the in-laws & 2 other families are going with us) which basically means that the hubs and I can be lazy and act like kids if we so desire, and you know what, I sooo desire that right about now.Labels: mommy, mommy brain, motherhood, Stress, vacation

Okay, maybe God doesn't give you more than you can handle, but people have given me more crap than I can carry plenty of times. I know how you feel. I had a bad couple weeks where one thing after the other seemed to pile on and I felt like a piece of gum on the bottom of a shoe. It does get better, though.
As for words of wisdom...here are a few from despair.com...just to make you giggle:
Problems: No matter how great and destructive your problems may seem now, remember, you've probably only seen the tip of them.
Pressure: It can turn a lump of coal into a flawless diamond, or an average person into a perfect basketcase.
Pessimism: Every dark cloud has a silver lining, but lightning kills hundreds of people each year who are trying to find it.
Despair: It's always darkest just before it goes pitch black.
It will eventually get better. Either things will get truly easier or something worse will come along and make the previous crap look a lot better than it did while you were wading in it.
Things will get better. Our duaghter gets energy burst when she wants to sleep.
Things tend to get better.
I'm still waiting for it to get better!! But they tell me it does. But, my older boys, now 8 and 11, do settle down pretty easily now, and they were just as tough as my 3 and 5 are now -- so there is some hope.
That's crazy... I just finished telling my husband the same thing, I just feel like I can't take anymore. When you figure out the answers let me know.
