I finally got some substantial sleep last night with minimal dreams and no interruptions - well except getting up to go to the bathroom, yay baby on my bladder.
I haven't been sleeping well because I can't shut my mind off. I've always had this problem, but it's been worse here lately. So much has been on my mind, I haven't known what to blog, so I just haven't. Do I write about the new baby or the house addition or the kids being sick or our crazy schedule or my roller coaster of emotions? Or all of the above maybe? UGH.
Usually, I am a fairly organized person. So when I'm in one of these overwhelmed moods, I take a step back, look at all the issues and decide which is the most bothersome. I start hacking away, organizing each thing one by one until I have a plan. The plan is always subject to change. I just like to know this is what's going on with this issue, this is what I'm doing about this, etc. That's what I need to do today I guess.
But all I really want to do is curl up on the couch, maybe have a good cry and watch some TV on this rainy day.
Don't worry, we all have 'those' kind of days. Sometimes I just stared at the screen for hours with nothing to write. We all blog because we find it enjoyable. If it starts to make you stressed out, just take some time off, read other people's post, and then come back and start writing again :)
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what I felt like I had to do. I needed a break. I'm so new to blogging and Twitter. I do think they are great tools to learn about writing, share about parenting, etc. I could get caught up and be on the computer the better part of the day just reading.
