Today’s Mood: cranky with a touch of psycho
I think I understand what little orphan Annie meant when she lamented that tomorrow is always a day away. This journey just never ends and I wonder whether the sun ever does actually come out (figuratively speaking). I keep thinking - if I manage to clean the house, I’ll feel better. If I can get healthy home cooked meals on the table every night, I’ll feel better. If I get up extra early so all the beds are made, uniforms ironed, nutritious yet appetising lunches packed, etc., then the school run will go smoothly and the kids will be happy. But it never does and they never are. If I budget better, money won’t be so tight and we might be able to do more fun things, but there’s always something unexpected. I feel like it’s always just out of reach and I’m never enough. I feel like I’m running a marathon but they keep moving the finish line.
