Survival mode.
That's where I'm at this week. ...I'm sick. But there are no sick days when you're a mom. ...Camden has decided he doesn't want to sleep through the night. The past three nights have been rough...and not at all restful. ...work is INSANE. My staff are great...but they can drive me crazy. Everything is fast-paced, stressful, and overwhelming. I work at least 46+ hours a week - EVERY week. It's a very challenging, draining job. And there's A LOT going on at my workplace. It's just BUSY. ...I'm cranky and plain ol' exhausted. ...and lots of other things are going on too....because well - life :/ I know these are small things. But right now, all compounded together, it feels pretty overwhelming. I feel like I'm unraveling at the seams. I feel like I'm losing control. I feel like I'm failing. ...But then I realize...there isn't time for that. There isn't time to feel sorry for myself. There isn't time to dwell on all these things. So I'm in survival mode. Doing what needs to be done just to get through each day. You don't think - you just DO. You just keep moving and plugging along because the world doesn't stop for you when you need a break. You just keep going. And you survive.
