Change

I'm still feeling very unsettled. I'm trying very hard to accept that this is just the way life is now since it has been this way for several months. I'm used to being home, having us all home for dinners nearly every night, having a routine. But that hasn't been the case. This has really fucked with my psyche. I just can't wrap my arms around this new "normal".
So I haven't posted any recipes or shared anything to do with cooking, baking, housekeeping etc. because right now I'm simply staying afloat.
It hit me this morning that my unusually high sex drive has even downshifted. That is bothering me as I do not want any issues to arise in my marriage.
I'm also having some unsettling feelings about friendship. As if I wasn't bagging on myself already about parenting, now I'm down on myself about friendships. So I'm working very hard personally. I'm out of shape, not pleased with many things and trying hard to balance my world.

So for awhile, I will continue to look inward and outward and work on improving the areas I want to change. Seeing as one of my biggest pet peeves is people who complain about things in their life and do nothing to change them, I will not follow suit. I will work toward the changes I want and the life I want and the body I want (probably the hardest for me since I loathe exercise). I see the end result of it all but the process is tough.

I hear ya! Change just always sucks, unless it's something like changing to a new car or something. I do agree with you that it's important to continue working towards the life you want when you see that it's not going the way you want it to go. Hang in there! It will pay off!

We all go through this, especially working Mom's you will get through it, but probably be very depressed about alot of things, good luck, it just takes time to figure it out and once you do, it will change again!
