A Split Personality Post...

I have just been having a bit of a nervous breakdown.  Things could be worse, and I know this.  But I wish things were better.  I keep waiting for them to get better, but one thing after another seems to keep piling up.  I have been trying so hard to keep myself in a positive space lately.  It just seems as if things keep happening to challenge my positive outlook.  Not that my outlook is even entirely positive.... but honestly, I have been trying...  Really, I have.  My mind keeps going back to something I read recently...  Here is the quote:  “Do you understand, sir, do you understand what it means when you have absolutely nowhere to turn?” (Marmeladov, remembered by Raskolnikov)

I keep hearing it...  I keep feeling that way.  I have nowhere to turn and no one to turn to when it comes to my responsibilities as a Mother.  Just myself.  And that is a lot of pressure....

Okay....  It started this post yesterday evening and never finished it.  I went to bed early, overslept, got my kids to school late...  But I feel somewhat better today.  Not as gloom filled.   So that is a good thing.  I have two job interviews on Wednesday.  Maybe something will come out of those.  I feel like I can be pretty productive in the house today, and the weather is beautiful outside....  I think I will open the windows and let in some fresh air...  Hopefully, this afternoon I can get out in the yard and get something done outside as well...  No sense freaking out again like I did yesterday...  I just need to take one day at a time and focus on the positive!   Yes, today is beautiful! And I will focus on that! :)
