As a mom and a full time student, I’d like to think I can do it all. Do dentistry 8 hours a day, drive 1.5-3 hours per day, be a good wife, bond with my baby, keep the house clean and refrigerator stocked, find a house for our family, keep up with friends… etc. All while some how trying to keep my sanity. The truth is, sometimes it gets to be a bit too much. You see, it is a delicate balance. If something goes wrong, it can throw everything off. Sometimes it is my sanity that takes a hit. Sometimes I feel like I am doing all these things, but none of them very well.
Today was one of those days. A day that made me feel like quitting everything… I won’t get into it, but let’s just say it was more than I could handle for one day.
Luckily the tides turned. The hubby, Bean and I went to a friends baby shower. We had a great time. We relaxed. And for a couple of hours I was able to forget about all my responsibilities and just…. Relax.
Now it is 11:40pm and I am supposed to be up at 6:00 to take my LO to grandma’s and head to a 9 hour dental education conference. After that, I need to rush to a meeting with a potential builder (yes, we are thinking about building now. That’s for another post). Aaaaannnddd begin the craziness again.
The light at the end of the tunnel is life should slow down a bit by Sunday. Thank goodness! Until then…
