Daily Grind
I'm having a difficult time managing my daily routine. My home is a disaster, my diet is totally whacked and my moods are wavier than the average perm. I'm feeling all the emotions around being useless etc. as well as the hatred of being in a house that's cluttered and messy. I even have the guilt for not taking care of it all.
Nothing is pushing me to do anything about it. I just sit and sulk. Every day is like this, with the addition of work on the weekdays. Why are you never warned about the dull monotony of adult life? It's just not enough.
@Jemima679- I am sorry to say, but you allowed me to laugh in solidarity. Took the words right out of my mouth. I loved the part about wavier than an average perm. What a great image.
Yes, I dont think any of us are really prepared for "adulthood". Managing a household, planning healthy meals, taking care of finances, learning how to stay organized and avoid being overwhelmed by messes!!
All I can say is you are not alone in feeling the way you do.
We do have to find the moments of gratitude in our lives. Yeah, I am fairly healthy. Oh and I have a roof over my head. And have so much stuff that it is a mess. These are the things I am saying to myself today.
Hope you can find some things in your life that make you smile. Please take care. And thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us.
