so exhausted

Post Reply New Topic

I am just so very exhausted. It just seems like I can never catch up with all that there is to do. I've had an incredibly busy 6 months~ finished my masters, took my comprehensive exam, teaching 40+hours per week, parenting 24/7, weekly appts for 3 of us, just finished coordinating student's prom, have to finish student's yearbook this week, have just started working on daughter's school play.
not trying to be supermom.....just want a break. I've given up on ever having a clean house, or drawers full of clean laundry. just so very tired and burnt out. glad most things are coming to an end.

My pice of advice: Don't even contemplate doing your PhD for a few years!

Hope you have a nice holiday when school finishes.

I feel exhausted just reading your schedule!

My mum was similar: raised 3 kids, worked fulltime as a teacher, studied part-time, my Dad was sick etc

It sounds like you are over committed!

I think there is a time of the month that we women feel like superheros... Only the superpowers pass and we are stuck dealing with our over commitments!

The only advice I have for you is to enjoy your summer break and try not to take on so much next year!

Best of luck!

It's a good think you've given up on these insignificant things like completing all the laundry. My basket is always full--figuratively and literally.

(I think I finally have this quote thing figured out).

Good luck with your degree. All that work will be worth it. I go to school full time, have clinicals, and a never have time to clean.

You will get a break. Those who work hard get breaks as a reward.

thanks all....was feeling better today, and then got call from NT son's school about an altercation with another boy....uggh.........other kid pushed my son, and he pushed back....ah well. tomorrows another day.
