I know it doesn't work for long but take a few minutes to recoup. You've got alot on your plate right now. We'll wait.... Ok, put your fingers in your ears and repeat after me “lalalalala”.

Your heart will tell you where to place your priorities.. Jody,

That's all I'm asking from you. Just give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do. Yesterday's gone, sweet Jesus. And tomorrow may never be mine. Lord help me today, show me the way, one day at a time." Suddenly, I have a lyric from an old gospel song in my head: “One day at a time, sweet Jesus. That’s all I’m asking from you.

Lately it seems to be getting worse. I need to find that balance I am comfortable with. I hope you get some time to relax soon! I have days like that. Lately it seems to be getting worse.

Take a deep breath and know we're here and your family is too. If you weren't worried about how you were doing - THAT would be concerning. :) I think we all have days like that; even those of us not WOH.

You are one person trying as you've pointed out above to do it all. Give things a chance to settle into a routine of sorts. You've chosen to work in an area that provides a daily roller coaster ride. That 90% Stasis Quo /10% panic arena. Emotions in L&D and the nursery run high always. When you've been there done that you tend to personalize the experiance until its more routine and that makes the workplace even more intense. I realized after I went back to work (not anything as stressful as the jobs I held as a nurse in the ER and OR) that my kids depended on me for way too much! They had to take more reponsibility for their lives (okay we're talking remembering their lunches here!) and help out more around the house (actually make their beds and help load the dishes). It will all sort its self out. You need the security of having the job in place in your life, for all of them and you. Be patient with life. Slow down a little somewhere else. It will all be good.

You have taken on a lot of new stresses. Give yourself a chance to get it all settled in you. We all have had days where we are frustrated and yellin' at the kids. Tomorrow will be better.
