Ya know that saying?

FYI this post is on the negative side, so if you're having a great day, skip right on past this because I have no desire to ruin it.

I once read, "I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least a little bit tired."

I can't remember the last time we weren't at least a little bit busy. Work, school, house, dogs, church, friends, hobbies, hobbies that are turning into nice little side work, family, the list goes on.

Even when we do have down time (and this is especially true for Blake), we always know there's something we should be doing instead of taking it easy. So is it really worth the down time if 80% of it is spent thinking about the fact that the house needs to be vaccuumed, or the bills need to be paid, or Blake needs to study? How do you get rid of the guilty feeling and just enjoy the two hours you've set aside to spend time with your spouse?

I really need to vaccuum.

Are you my sister from another mister?

In fact my sisters hubby's name is also Blake....

I hear on on the busy bee syndrome. I hope you get a break soon.

I'm actually going away next weekend with a friend to our beach house. I'm so excited I can hardly stand myself.

question is.......can I really catch up enough to leave guilt free.

We already know that answer. I'll feel guilty.....but I'll still go!

Stop, tak ea break, you deserve a little peace in your life. We all do!

Hugs to you!
