I am so moody today! I hate having my weekends spoken for, and I don't have a free weekend until the 1st weekend in August, and then I am gone again for 5 days the weekend after that. It is my fault because I have a hard time saying "no".
So last weekend I was 2 hours away Fri - Sun for a family girls shopping trip. Well, this weekend, my sister needs me to drive two hours to babysit overnight for her so that she and her husband can go away with friends. Next weekend, I took Thursday and Friday off at work, because my oldest sister expects me to come to her cottage every summer (8 hours away - driving by myself), and I feel guilty if I don't make time for it each summer. The following weekend is our family golf outing out of town. I am free that next weekend, then that next week I have a wedding (in which I had to take 3 work-days off because it is in Ohio), then I will finally be free (well, two weeks later we start school, so I will have all-day events Sunday and the following Saturday).
I am just so stressed by it all. I hate working all week and then having to go, go, go all weekend! I want to tell my oldest sister that I just can't make the cottage work this summer. She is coming back the following weekend for our family golf outing, so I will see her. I just know that she will feel hurt because me and my other sister are so close because we live closer.
I just needed to vent. I am so frustrated by it all!
I am in the same boat! I am overcommitted and over-scheduled and now I feel conflicted and resentful because I need some "me" time to take care of my personal needs and tasks around my home. I feel like I can watch myself crash. I also feel like I need to pay more attention to DS in a quality way and not be so tired all the time. It is time to do something about it.
