desperate housewife...

I can’t believe that Christmas has come and gone and pretty soon we will be celebrating New Year’s.  The sad thing is that that too will soon be over!  My goodness...where does time go?

My vacation is almost over and I’m feeling like I haven’t even been on vacation at all.  I’m grateful that I’m off of work but at the same time --is it really time off when you spend it at home cleaning, cooking, and taking care of kids?  

Seems to me like I spend all my time washing dishes, laundry and cleaning.  No matter how much I try to keep the house in order and get the kids to help me out, it doesn’t make a difference.  

And if and when I have a little free time, I like to check my e-mails and work on the computer for a little bit.  But when I do, I get the guilty trip from my kids… “Why are you on the computer?  You should spend time with us!”  I love my kids, but when I do spend time with them, I find myself getting frustrated because they begin bickering over little things.  

I don’t spend enough time with my hubby as it is.  He’s always too busy with work and other things he’s involved in.  We’ve argued over this a few times already.  Why can’t I be more understanding?  Why do I have to feel so frustrated and alone?  

I’m feeling stressed!  I need to learn how to better organize my time, my day and my life!  

I think I’m going to need another vacation from my “vacation”!
