It's Not Always Rainbows

Life is not always grand. I, among many, have learned that lately. Now don't get me wrong, the baby is healthy, my husband is healthy, and I am mostly healthy (I'm 90% sure I have a stomach ulcer). But life has been draining lately. Emotionally, mentally, and apparently physically. I am giving a 120% at work, a 120% with the Peanut, and a 120% in my marriage and at the end of the day I don't have much left for me. I am drained. I am tired. I am exhausted. But I am getting up each day chugging along, going through the motions trying to make the best of our current situation. It's not fun, it's not easy, but it's necessary.

I know this trying time will pass. I know better days are ahead of us and I do the best I can to stay positive. I try not to complain, but sometimes I just want to shout as loud as I can how much life sucks right now. Will it do any good? Probably not. But it might make me feel better.

Motherhood is hard. Marriage is hard. Managing friendships is hard. Life is just plain and simple hard right now. I will keep focusing on the positives, I will remind myself every day that I have a plethora of things to be grateful for. 

There is a light at the end of the tunnel. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. There IS a light at the end of the tunnel...
