The cat food made my blood boil... and it's not even my cat. My cat's dish - right this moment - is tidy... but completely empty. Rather than deal with the mess I have resorted to neglect... Maybe I should call Carly! Fit Familys last blog post..15-minute total body workout

oh, I hear ya! It’s so hard to get me-time though. When they are napping or sleeping it’s the ONLY time I get to work on my business, blog, laundry, pay bills, etc. If I don’t take that time to get business done, it won’t get done. So I’m stuck.
and kinda angry.
and pretty darn tired!

Good luck with this work Haley, so important to nurture yourself. Glad you had a good day, hope today was another one. So often it is just our perspective, how we deal with what happens, isn't it? Kristens last blog post..Life Lessons learned

To start painting again….I set up a studio in the basement, so can justify the little me time by throwing in a load of laundry…and putting my 4 year olds toys in an area right outside the door with a little table for him to sit and work at. But I don’t have a baby…

Also, from 8:30 to about 11 most nights (when I am not studying for school)

You can do it! You deserve it!

the day i decided that i was going to take some me-time entirely guilt-free was a monumental day. i’m a much better mom and a person and a wife because of it

I’m glad that you’re out of your funk Isn’t it amazing when you come out of it and you look back and think: what was my problem? Why couldn’t I look at things differently? But that’s just me, and of course there comes the guilt for thinking that the “funk” was a waste of my precious time (which I’ll never get back) with my baby… I know about GUILT!
But moving on to things that touch my soul and recharge me: 1) exercise 2) coffee and a book 3) reading blogs 4) scrapbooking 5) playing guitar 6) lying on the couch and watching daytime shows

One great piece of advice a good friend gave me during one of my funks: whenever you’re immobilized by guilt/depression/exhaustion/etc. ask yourself: what’s next? in other words, what is an immediate thing that needs to be done next? Basically you focus on the immediate moment and see where that takes you – usually it will take you out of the darkness before you know it.
