I want to finish my last beach post.
but
I am completely overwhelmed.
I came home to so much to do.
as mom's you understand.
no need to list the 9,245 things we do in a day.
Let alone missing 8 days of real life..
I have a million phone calls, errands, teacher notes, missed homework, sports coach's..etc
I am. so. behind. and I don't like that feeling.
BUT yesterday
was my Dad's bday
and it made me smile
and remember
that I got to spend
a week
with my entire family.
memories.
priceless.
it is worth all the hassle the week before and after.
stressful? yes.
but that's not what counts...
because time fades, my dad is a year older,
life goes on and what matters in the end,
family.
now I feel better. thank you.
I will have my post done this weekend.
I have a house to put in order, clean, carpool, buy sports uni's, preschool forms, yada yada yada.
it never stops.
but it is all worth it.
right?
love my job.
and
Happy Birthday to my Dad,
the greatest man ever.
seriously.
xo!

I went to dinner last night with a group of girls and we all had anxiety and felt overwhelmed going out. I about had a heart attack because of my anxiety. It's hard in this time of life. So many schedules pulling us this way and that. Sometimes I wonder if going out for one night is worth it. But it is. Leaving and coming home from vaca always makes for so much work. It's worth it though. All of those memories you made with your family make it worth it. I love ya girl. I get it!!!
NAT- You saved me...I SO needed your pep talk/text yesterday!
U completely UNDERSTAND. I love it. AND you are right: we need a BALANCE..us mom's work hard. We sometimes need just one night or one afternoon for us! Oh how I miss hanging with my Utah GNO's! :)
and the beach. was. completely. worth. it. period.
loves right back. xo
When I saw your title I was like "um, that one word totally sums up my life right now". I know how you feel. Life is so busy with a million small things but you're right. The work and stress are worth any special memory made. From the looks of it, you made SO many fun memories. I kinda want to be adopted into your family :)
Good luck with getting everything done. You can do it!
I finally caught up on all your blog posts because I have been feeling the EXACT same feeling that you have! All of the make-up work and the tutoring and the sandy laundry and banging out beach shoes and buckets. But you're right! It is all worth it. This was like the most perfect year. The waves were great, the company was divine and every moment was fabulous! I truly gained like 5 pounds of SK fat around my biff. As hard as it is to come home and get back on my feet, it would be 100 times worse if we didn't have this trip! Memories for LIFE! Love and miss ya girl!
