Time To Make Changes

Why is my life so dependent on everyone else?  It hit me like a slap in the face as I was working out my schedule for week.  I proclaim to be this independence person but I’m really not.  My days are based on what everyone around me is doing.  What are my DH and 3 DDs doing today?  Will there be time to fit in a workout or a walk between all they need to get done?  I feel so selfish if I say “no” I need a little time to take care of me.  Sure I will tell someone “you have to take care of yourself first before you can care for someone else”.  Then I turn around and do just the opposite.  Even my attitude is dictated by others.  I love my family and friends but I’m starting to resent what my life has become.  With my 45th birthday just a few months away I have decided to make changes and choices that may not always agree with everyone, but I need to feel like I’m living life again.

Just go to bed...

Everyone probably knows what it’s like. I have no time for myself.  Every week I’m pulled in so many different directions that I sometimes need a GPS just to find my way.  Sure, I would love to eat right, exercise regularly, and sleep more than a few hours a night, but I have to face it; there is nothing regular about my life.  So, I have to try and make this work in my irregular life.  So, I was up @ 5:30 with one of my daughters for a 30 min walk before they have to get ready for school.  Then it’s off to work until 5pm.  It’s almost 4pm and I’m so sleepy.  I want exercise tonight but at this moment all I can think about is sleeping.  But before I can exercise I have to pick up daughter 1 from Cheerleading practice deliver her home.  Then take daughters 2  & 3 to soccer practice.   Come home fix dinner then return to school to pick up daughters 2 & 3.  Come back home feed family, make sure homework is done and get them started on their baths.  Once all that is done I can look forward to exercising.   Don’t get me wrong, I actually love to workout.  My passion is tennis but I can’t play for 6 months (shoulder injury) and this stinks.  It’s where I let all my stress go.  All the craziness really didn’t get to me until I had to stop playing.  The tennis court is where I would recharge, refocus for the next day.  Now I don’t have that.  I’m just in a BAD mood and I want to go to bed.
