Mental Health

So, for the last two weeks, at least, I have been struggling. I gave up on diet and exercise a while ago, unfortunately, and now spend my time beating myself up over it instead. And for whatever reason, I am in no mood to be a mother or wife. I told myself it was just because I am burnt out and needed space. But in the last two weeks I have had two full days of scrapbooking and several half days to spend with my mom. And it has done nothing for my mood. In fact, it just makes me dread the next day even more. I am seriously considering seeing a shrink and getting some meds. Something is just not right.

On a side note, through it all, my husband has been uncharacteristically wonderful. He has offered me time away without complaint. And even after an entire weekend of me doing my own thing and him taking care of Munchi almost all on his own, he woke up this morning with Munchi and told me to sleep in. And when I lost it this afternoon and started crying for no reason, he just went with the flow and said nothing to make me feel worse about myself. So through it all, I can at least say, I am grateful for my husband :)

Photo tag

So I was not tagged to do this, but I thought it was cute, especially once I saw which picture it was.

Here are the rules:

1) Go to the 4th folder in your computer where you store your pictures.

2) Pick the 4th picture in that folder.

3) Explain the picture.

This is a picture of my oldest niece on Easter, who was almost two. She is now almost 5! I forgot she used to be this little, since we have had two others babies in the family since then. Though not part of the rules, her is a picture of Lola now:



Yeah, she is hard not to love. Actually, I absolutely adore her! (And her sister too!)
