A Complicated Life

So here it begins. As I sit here contemplating what I could create my blog about, I am struggling to forget about the million and a half other responsibilities that are patiently awaiting my undivided attention. So for this reason I am dedicating my blog to all those other women out there who find a way to get it all done.

Life was not too complicated for me a little over a year ago, I was comfortably married with a preteen. I worked full time but spent most of the rest of my time doing what ever I pleased. Then a year ago November I had my beautiful daughter Mackenzie. After 6 weeks home with her I returned to work full time and shortly after decided to return to school to obtain my bachelors degree online with Full Sail. Suddenly I was feeling a little stretched.

I have not determined why but my husband around this time seemed to forget how to care for himself. When I needed him to step up the most, he became like a third child, forgetting how to eat if I did not cook, clean if I didn't wash, ect. We have had many discussions about this lack of assistance and it has become clear that things are not going to change much, so I best not become terminally ill anytime soon.

I love my life, I adore my family, and I am proud of my work. For these reasons I keep trucking on through the exhaustion and mood swings. I know that the work I am putting into life will be worth it some day. I hope that this blog helps others out there like me know that there are others out there overworked and under appreciated. And if your anything like me you love to complain about it but wouldn't give it up for anything.
