I'm Having an Overwhelmed Kind of Week – SAHM Series

by Allison @ Alli 'n Son on December 18, 2009

I’m having one of days. Actually, one of those weeks. Where everything, big and small is overwhelming. It’s everything and nothing at the same time. Maybe it’s the holidays. Or maybe it’s the ton of snow that was recently dumped on us.

Whatever the cause is, I’m overwhelmed by everything. The house hasn’t been cleaned all week. There are dirty dishes piling up on the kitchen counter and clean dishes (un)patiently waiting in the dishwasher to be put away. There is a lunch that needs to be made and eaten by me. The kiddo has already eaten (after I made two different meals because he refused the first one). There’s blogging to be done. Emails to check up on. An exploding Reader to go through. Blogs to comment on, and PR reps to contact. Products to review.

Plus playgroups. Classes. Swim lessons. Groceries. Work. The dogs have to be fed and let out. The blinds have to be opened. The house must decluttered. Again. For the millionth time today. There’s playdough to be played with. Books to be read. Pictures to be colored. And a froggy to be pottied on.

There’s one pile of laundry to be started. Another to be folded and put away. Dinners to be planned and prepared. After the dishes from lunch (and breakfast) are put away. Mail to bring in. And at some point, I should actually shower. Before someone in the real world seems like this.

Don’t get me wrong. I wouldn’t change a thing about my life. I love being a SAHM. I love watching my son grow up. I love being part of his daily life. But this week, I’m just a little overwhelmed. And I’m running low on chocolate. Good things it’s the holidays, we have plenty of cookies to go around.
