Between pseudo-single parenthood, taking on this whole FRG thing and work, I am utterly and completely overwhelmed. I am trying desperately to keep up but always feel like I'm falling short in one area or another.
And the worst part? I did this all to myself. I took on the FRG at my husband's request. I said I'd do more with it so I could show crazy former FRG leader who is boss. I sent out all those queries and accepted the article assignments. I agreed to the deadlines.
So really now the only thing to do is push on through.
And, of course, somehow teach Munchkin how to sleep past 6am.

I cut back on my commitments to others so far that I was having too much time on my hands. Now I am adding stuff back in, but I need to be careful. One of my biggest problems is overextending myself. For me it is all ego. So I am trying to check my motives for agreeing to take on something new: is it ego or is it something that will really feed my soul?
There's the deep thought for the day.
I call it married single parenthood. And it sucks. Can you take some time off after your deadlines? Treat yourself to a massage after the last one. Trust me, it's well worth it! And you so deserve it!
Hoping things ease up a bit for you.
Deadlines... A very wise woman told me that deadlines are our friends. :)
I hear you on being overwhelmed.
Remember to breathe... and enjoy a glass of wine every now and then.
You can DO it!
I'm trying to remember that. I've turned in two stories so far. Now only 7 to go.
And hopefully the rest of the drama will recede this week.
If not, there is always beer. Sweet, lovable beer, my love for you will never die.
