When you have nothing left to give…
Being a Mom is incredible, difficult, yet rewarding. Personally, I can’t imagine life any other way. I always knew I wanted to be a Mom. I knew I wanted to stay at home, take care of my kiddos, the house, homework, sports…you know… Super Mom. (LOL)
A lot of days I have given so much of myself I am just flat worn out. Sadly enough, my 2 wk PMDD time is the worst time for this to occur.
At the end of the day I have taken care of 4 kids, laundry, dishes, homework, dinner, housework, playtime (at least 2 hrs daily), and in the end I know I still NEED and WANT to spend time with my husband. I am just so damn worn out.
I know I can’t be the only one out there that feels this way…Worn out with nothing left to give.
I know you may be thinking, divide these things out on different days. Tried It. When you have a family of 6 you cannot go a day without doing laundry and dishes or else it’s an explosion. That in itself puts me over the edge to see. I am already dividing out cleaning 3.5 bathrooms, deep cleaning, etc…
Please don’t think of this as complaining, just a simple observation that I believe a lot of Women feel, especially during the 2 wk time.
So much to do, So little time, So little energy…Flat out, nothing left to give!

Boy do I know exactly what you mean. It is really OVERWHELMING at times. Sounds like you need a break mommy, maybe a date with your husband or a girls night out? You deserve it!

I completely understand this. Only with me I have at least 2-3 days where I am SO tired I literally can not get off the couch to even do the smallest of tasks. Here the dishes pile up the laundry reproduces in it’s pile and once my 2 weeks or so are up.. I am left with what feels like a years worth of work to do JUST to catch up and feel “normal”
up down up down up down.. it does get so tiring.. Sigh*
