Some of the feeling of total loss of control has lifted, but more things need to change. <br /><br />There needs to be more discussion between me and hubby too. As soon as we are both in the same place at the same time without whinging kids and in a reasonable frame of mind I'll do that. :)Arianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17977679825245376111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29783395.post-67452199116070282072009-04-24T22:30:00.000+10:002009-04-24T22:30:00.000+10:00Ariane you are doing an amazing job considering th...Ariane you are doing an amazing job considering the mulitiple demands on you and your time. You may be feeling burnout from role overload!!! Not only are there a lot of plates spinning - they're heaped with responsibilities.<br /><br />It's true school holidays really are a drag, if you are trying to get some work done at the same time. Mr G and I have just survived 10 days - by tag teaming and taking some time off, but I know it's not easy with your own business. <br /><br />I reckon you deserve some time out - just for you. A day at least, to switch off, re-coup your energy and recharge your batteries... and yeah, no guilt.aztec-rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03808886984112378962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29783395.post-58606024650259316052009-04-22T02:57:00.000+10:002009-04-22T02:57:00.000+10:00Oh, I have been there.

Actually, I was there yesterday, when I woke my daughter up and kissed her goodbye at the same time.<br /><br />If the family is the most important thing, then that has to be true for more than one person in the family. When one of us - and it's usually a woman - tries to meet everyone's needs, and everyone else only worries about their own needs, that way lies madness.<br /><br />But it's damned hard to keep all the plates in the air. Sometimes they fall on my head. No brilliant solutions, but lots of sympathy.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15886225476339783827noreply@blogger.com
