Can I talk?
I'm just going to ignore that anyone is reading this and vent. Thanks. Maybe throw a few questions out to ya? I know I said I was going to ignore you, but I changed my mind.
I feel stuck. My feet are firmly glued to the ground and I cannot move. I have so many things I want to get done and accomplish lately, yet i don't do them. Is this a menopause thing? Or maybe...just a me thing? I think the beginning of the year goals are already getting to me. I've realized that I didn't accomplish what I wanted to last year and another year went by! ARGH....I hate that. The fact that I'm such a goal orientated person doesn't help.
I go to bed at night stressing and thinking of what I didn't do instead of what I did do. The problem is I never give myself a break. Let me list what I HAVE to do everyday and then maybe I can prioritize from there.
1. laundry
2. exercise
3. meals
4. cleaning (vacuuming, dusting, bathrooms)
5. overseeing treatments
6. blah, blah blah
You get the picture. You're probably asking what is her problem? I know everyone does the same type of things everyday, plus work... the difference is other people find time to have fun, visit people or go shopping (even if their not buying, their getting out)
The issue is I cannot do something fun until all on my list is complete! It ends up being 9 or 10 at night and theirs no time left!
The fun things I'd like to do and can't find time are-
finish a book
go to the library
paint my bathroom
start a book club (had one years ago, loved it)
That's just a few things, give me suggestions. Please.
