I have picked out everything I want to purchase. I’ve had the pages folded for a month now. I know where I want everything to go. I want the ivory bench for the bathroom, the faux gold console table for the hallway, the wrought iron candles to frame the wrought iron grills, and the lighted curio to go in the corner of the family room. I’ll purchase the big fake fern for the family room here in town. What am I waitng on!

I spend so much time trying to keep my family happy. I remember when I could go to the mall alone, get my nails done, and finish reading a book in just one day. I miss those things soooo much. I love my family, but I feel like I’m someone else. I hardly get to do things I love to do. If I happen to get a chance to do something I love, I have to rush through it because I have to do something for them. When my husband gets a chance to have a free day, I wish he would keep the kids so I can do something for myself.
I wish I could sleep late on the weekends or take a nap after work.
I really wanted to work on another degree, but I just can’t add anything else to my plate. I am taking online classes for an endorsement in my area of expertise; it’s so hard because I can only do research and homework when my two-year-old is asleep. He is asleep now, so I must stop this and get some things done.
