So I did so-so at being productive. I got most of the big chores done and kept up on the house until about Thursday. I just was exhausted I could barely move and I was feeling like I was getting sick. So we had a TV day. Friday was busy but no cleaning. I don't know if I am a total convert. I don't like all the cleaning that needs to be done. I do like that my house was cleaner and I did more with my kids but I just found having to work into the evening was just plain exhausting.
But I am not giving up yet. I am going to get back at it and keep getting trying. Hopefully I will enjoy it and not be so cranky. I think it may have been an off week. It has also been hard because the weather has sucked and Mike has been out in the evenings.
Wish me luck and I hope my mood gets better, I feel like I have been cranky all week.
It's kind of like weightloss, actually - we're going for progress, not perfection, and being gentle with ourselves. Life happens. I consciously skipped several parts of my schedule this week as well, and have been battling fatigue and mood swings too. Today, for no apparent reason, everything felt SO hard and my feet were made of lead! Thats okay! I will just pick up, as I can, in the coming days, and keep moving forward.
ReplyDeleteGiven less than perfect circumstances with your husband, weather, health, etc etc, it sounds like you did pretty dang good. Congratulations and I hope the trend continues and you feel happier and less cranky ;)
