Can I cry?

[NorasMom]

So, this is all pretty petty compared with what many are dealing with, but it's been one of those days. Yesterday was wonderful but incredibly active. I was in a lot of pain all night, but today I mowed the yard, dealt with baby bunnies that my dog found, argued with the bank, and found out that the reason my streaming service hasn't updated the only 6 shows I watch is because their seasons ended. I'm exhausted, frustrated, and have to go running again tomorrow, which means I absolutely have to shower tonight. I just want to crawl in bed for a few days and ignore the whole world.

I'm impressed with what you got done!

I hope tomorrow goes better for you.

Thank you, but I am so totally going to crash on Thursday. 😬

It's always the shower that tips it over the edge!

[NorasMom in reply to kdali]

YES!

[CatsandCars]

Wow, you got a lot done! I'm sorry you have so much to do, plus six "show holes"! I hope tomorrow goes okay, and that you find something new to watch. I hear you on the shower. So draining, no pun intended! 🛀

[RomCom87 in reply to CatsandCars]

They are sooo draining!

[CatsandCars in reply to RomCom87]

It really is. It's one of those things that I thought was just me before I discovered this forum, so it's good to know that I'm not alone. I often envy my hubby, since he's in and out in a few minutes and doesn't even need to dry his hair. How awesome would that he? 😅

[RomCom87 in reply to CatsandCars]

My husband, too. I often have to rest awhile after the shower. There’s no get up and go for this gal.

[AquaZumbaFan in reply to RomCom87]

Me too!! I always have to factor in enough time… It is so annoying!!

[NorasMom in reply to AquaZumbaFan]

lol. Try sharing the lone bathroom with someone who has IBS and gastroparesis. I text my son, even when he's not home, and ask if he's going to need it in the next hour. It's become a running joke between us, but we honestly see more of each other right outside the bathroom than we do any other place in the house.

[AquaZumbaFan in reply to NorasMom]

Oh gosh!! That has got to be rough !! hello

[RomCom87 in reply to NorasMom]

At least you can laugh about it. 😅

[Xvettech]

you did a lot! Best wishes for tomorrow!

I often feel like I need a stop the world button. It goes by so fast and ms slows us down so much !

[Greentime]

Enjoy a well deserved rest tomorrow. 🤗

[Kitsey]

I’m amazed at all that you accomplished. I truly would not be able any one of the things that you did. I’m so sorry that you have another extremely busy day today. I wish you the very best and hope that you are able to give yourself more than just Thursday to recover. How about Thursday thru Sunday?😊😉

[Robsmom]

Wow, that was lot! Take it easy on yourself.

[RomCom87]

of course you can cry! Your feelings of frustration, pain, exhaustion are just as valid as anyone else’s. But also acknowledge how amazing you are for accomplishing so much. You’ve got this!

[Elizt3]

hang in there. I’m sorry for all the challenges. You sound like a very strong person. You will persist 💪

[Mollyabigail]

'Course you can cry! But you accomplished a lot. Enjoy crashing on Thursday. You earned it!

[AquaZumbaFan in reply to Mollyabigail]

Beautifully said!!

[Tazmanian]

I'm sure I couldn't do all of that

[carolek572 CommunityAmbassador]

After doing all that, I would feel so accomplished, NorasMom !
