Wow Lynda, very powerful. <<chill bumps>>
I think I get in these phases when my sleep debt is racked up or I'm beating
myself up for "failing" with the house, in giving my children attention,
when I lose focus, when I feel that I'm spinning my wheels and the laundry
is mountaneous (there's a word for ya!)....when my gas tank is empty, so to
speak.
Your stroy and perspective gives me the strength to keep going, pull out
the ol' "This too shall pass" mantra.....and just find some moments to enjoy
this wonderful life I have.
