So I feel like I have been pretty busy lately and falling behind on everything. I missed a workout last week, I missed my 'Fitness Friday" blog post last Friday, I missed my "Never miss a Monday" workout, and I was behind on chores all last week. I totally planned on blogging about a different topic but I was too busy so today's post is going to be more of a rant than anything else...
I thought I was developing a pretty good schedule and sticking to it at the beginning of 2015 but now it seems like I am always busy. I really want to have more playdates, more workouts, more time with my family and husband, get all of my chores done, work on this blog, and take "me time" such as going out to get a massage. However, I feel like there is never enough time in the day. I don't understand how people have time to watch tv or go out and still get everything done...
Lately, I have done my fair share of complaining to my husband about how it seems like I have a never ending cycle of feeding & changing my son and chores etc. while it seems like he has so much more time to himself. I know he tries to help out in his own way but it still feels like I am always busier than him. For example, yesterday he offered to look after Cooper while I went grocery shopping because it was pretty cold outside. In his mind, he was helping out by looking after him but to me I was still going grocery shopping and then preparing a dinner for my family that was coming over. It was hardly "time to myself" but in his mind it was. He said he would tidy up a bit while I was grocery shopping. Then I come home to them napping on the couch...its so frustrating sometimes.
There are times when he tells me to "relax" and go out but I already feel so swamped. If I was to take some extra time for myself and get a massage or something, I would come home and be even busier because I would have even less time to get stuff done. This is something that he doesn't seem to get...How do you guys balance everything. If any of you have tips or tricks, please share them!!!
I am really sorry for not getting my last two blog posts up but I will definitely try and get back to my regular schedule this Friday...
Here is hoping this week is a little less chaotic than last week!
