Do you ever

Feel overwhelmed?

Your day started early and you met every ones needs, you went to work and did the same there, you came home and raced around, listening to moans and groans, stories of the day. Threw the washing on, fed them a healthy balanced meal, went out in the freezing cold to sit in the rain for an hour watching them play sport and still there was more to do..............someone wanted or needed something more and at times it seems just too much.

And then you remember how important it is to treasure every moment, every glance, every hug, every sweet little kiss.

And you feel that awful tugging guilt that today maybe you didn't.

Yep. Happens to me all the time. Sometimes it's all just too much and I lock myself in here on the computer to escape it all!

Yep - I know that feeling - Instead of putting on my florence nightingale cap and being a great mum to my sick child - I have my resentful, grouchy beanie on --- poor little poppet - BUT I JUST CAN'T STAND TO WATCH DORA ANYMORE!!

So true Trudi! It is soooo easy to get caught up in everyday mundane life. I think you need to consciously stop and take a deep breath and think about what you are enjoying about a moment. Such as sitting and having a coffee with a yummy piece of chocolate :o) But you get my meaning? LOL!

Yes that sounds just like my life. It's all just way too tiring sometimes. Love it Jodie coffee and chocolate!!!!
