I'm beat

I'm tired, very tired. Working two jobs, being a mother to a 19mo old and a wife - meaning being still expected to do the lions share of the housework /parenting, is getting to me. I don't mean I don't want to do it or expect Chris to do everything - I definitely don't, I don't agree with that, but I'm tired. Chris is amazing, he does more with Emeliah than any man I've ever known, and more housework than any man I've ever known. I'm extremely lucky to have him, and love him, and get love from him. But it's a woman's burden. Now that most women work full time or part time, their responsibilities have increased exponentially, and the expectations are still the same when it comes to children and homes. No matter what people say, that's the truth. Women that are breadwinners and choose to have a home and family, its much crazier. Now, I wouldn't give up having a full time job as of yet, though sometimes I really do think I could do it, in a second. If you have things or can find things to do when you're off, you're golden. Anyway, I digress. I am tired. Two jobs, four including being a mother and wife, are wearing me out. I'm enjoying three of the jobs LOL, so that's better than none! 

I give a huge thumbs up to ALL women out there, not just mothers/wives/full time workers/part time workers, because we all bear huge responsibilities and the weight of the world rests on our shoulders!

Remember how amazing you are, and how you can get through whatever is going on in your life, because you are woman, and are incredible.
