Burnt-Out

My legs feel like Jell-O and the day hasn’t even begun. Need caffeine just to stay awake, but the jitters make me nauseous. And nausea gives me a headache. And the headache makes me dizzy. Dehydration.                      Disorientation.                                              Disillusion.                                                                Disappointment.Disappointment in myself for complaining and focusing on the negative. Instead, I should focus on resting my head in his lap at the end of the day. I should appreciate the fact that he cooks way more than I do.
 I should be thankful that I don’t have to wake up in the middle of the night to a crying child, but then I’d have to blame myself for lack of sleep. And isn’t that what being an adult is? Taking responsibility? Or is it complaining about every little thing just to make ourselves feel better?

About Me

Hi there! I’m thrilled to have you join me on my blog. I write fiction, nonfiction, and everything in between.

In my free time, I like to keep busy with a variety of hobbies. I’m an avid reader and writer, I love to knit, crochet, and embroider.

At the end of the day, though, my main priority is spending time with my loved ones. Whether it’s traveling or just spending quality time together, I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by those I care about.
