Random Friday - 01.11.2013 - Some Inspirational Words...


E

verything will work out and be okay.  These are words I needed to hear today.  I've been so incredibly overwhelmed this week with work, home, etc... Life has been pretty stressful and I just feel like I've got so very much on my tiny little teacup saucer. I get up at 4:30 each morning to go to the old rental house and keep clearing out stuff.  I then head to work. My job is pretty demanding and I'm ready to go straight to bed when I finally make it home.  But, instead, I go home to clean (mop because we have floors now) before I pick up lil' S.  That way she always has a clean home to crawl around in.  I then pick her up, play for a bit, feed her, bathe her and put her down for the night.  That ends at about 7:30 or 8.  Next? I eat and plop down in front of the computer to lesson plan and grade work until about midnight. Then? It starts all over again the next morning.

I know you probably didn't care to read any of that.  But, it sure felt good to just let it alllll out. Whew. I'm tired just reading and writing it.  I actually just sighed out loud. No lie. 

Well... perhaps I need to look at this quote as well... 


To feel better, I really need to just remember what I have and not what I wish I had (... more time!!!). I may not have a lot of time available each day. The hours sure are short! But, I do have my health, my little girl and sweet hubby. Our home. An amazing job that I love. The ability to be home early enough to clean up the place!! Luxury! : D Right?

Okay... I won't bore you with allllll I'm grateful for. But, maybe I can inspire you to think about alllllll YOU'RE grateful for!!

Hugs,

Mina

How on earth do you function on 4 1/2 hours of sleep?! I'm blown away.

I ask myself the same question every morning. Guess all the crazy years of teaching full time while going to law school full time prepped me for this!!

You sound so busy! Poor some tea out of that cup : ) great words of inspiration. Gratefulness is so important in times when we feel like we have so many hats to wear and so much unfinished business to tend to.
