Crying Moment

Mom:

You aren't far from me. Pack up the kids - come up - we'll go to the Watermine park today...or you can stay at my home and chill???

I can relate...I am husband and childless this week! I thought it would be more fun....but alas...it's not. (pouting).

You are NOT alone. If you need to cry - go take a shower - and cry in the shower. Or really - you can come up here!! Promise!! Actually - we might cry together then "get over it" and go do something! :)

Just pack it in and go do something fun. Forget the house. Cry it out before you leave. Sometimes you just have to throw up your arms, say screw it. There is always tomorrow! Go out. Buy yourself a treat. Get a big ice cream sundae! Tomorrow will be better.

I can relate. Those are my "me" days. I take time out to do things that I normally don't do...listen to music, take a walk with my dog, or buy myself something.

Relish in the day:) Do something nice for yourself...you deserve it:)

I woke feeling that way today. Thought i had chased it away, but it isn't going anywhere.,

Don't fight it.
Have yourself a good cry.
It's very cleansing and acts like an emotional re-set button.
You'll feel a whole lot better if you just go with it and stop attempting to keep it from coming on.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a good cry every once in awhile.
Just don't use it to affect people around you (not that you would but some women do and when they do it's just so manipulative and annoying to everyone around them).

Oh goodness, yes. I can relate.

We've had issues with our house, my washer blew a motor and I have so many projects that need to be done that I don't know where to start.

So I hang out on Mamapedia and procrastinate while eating Mike and Ikes. I like that you have set a goal to get to the gym today. I think I'll do the same! (Maybe I can work off some of these Mike and Ikes...)

Hang in there- and let yourself be mellow in your mood today. It's okay to do that every now and again. Tomorrow's a new day!

Yes! If you can, have a good cry and chill a little and then get out of the house. I cried on Saturday for no good reason really (feeling taken advantage of by others but it really wasn't so bad) and sacked out on the couch for 1/2 hour which I never do. Then I went out later and felt all better. Very frustrating the hormones we deal with...It'll get better.

Just don't make a big decision on this temporary emotion. It will pass. Tomorrow will be a do over.
Yep, we all have days like that.

Don't be sad today. It is my birthday😄. 44, holy cow, perhaps I should cry😱

I can totally relate and it's not a good feeling! Actually, it's the guilt that overwhelms me. I feel so guilty when I'm feeling like a less than perfect Mama!!
Sending you good thoughts for a great day!

Hi, Fun:

Sounds like you are making excuses instead of doing some reflection on why you are feeling this way. Your statement: "I am trying, to manage my house, while including my husband in on decisions (UGH!!!)"
says a lot about what is going on in your head.

You have labeled your child with ADHD and also trying to balance another child's needs.

Get an appointment book with 4 columns, one for each person. (ataglance.com)
Enter all the routine appoints. Schedule time for yourself and your husband to be alone.

Sounds like there is no discipline in the home.

Take some parenting classes and some co-dependency classes (www.coda.org)

Good luck,
Learn all you can
