In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Overwhelmed

Filed under: General — Rachel at 10:41 am on Friday, September 24, 2004

Man, I am really overwhelmed right now. I’ve got so many things to do, and so many people saying “gimme, gimme”. Most of the things I need to do, housework, sorting through the clothes the kids have outgrown, going to visit my grandparents, etc., isn’t that big of a deal in itself. It’s just that with two little ones, they demand so much. I feel like I constantly have someone wanting me to do something. So, other than the kids, my responsibilities sometimes don’t get met. My house is still a mess, even though I worked a lot on it Monday. I guess I had to take too many “get me juice”, “I want a bite”, and breastfeeding breaks.
Besides all of that, I really feel overwhelmed on an emotional level. There’s so many things that I just don’t want to deal with. It’s starting to take a toll, though, and I think I need to take a break from it all.
