HELP ME BALANCE......

koylefam

The past 2 weeks have been horrible. I have ate like crap, and I feel like crap... somedays I just want to stop..... In March it will be a year since we lost Mackinley, I want to feel great about myself on that day, be strong and confident, and pushing ahead. I know that is what my baby girl wants for me. but I am having such a hard time keeping up with logging, exercising, being a mom, working, hose work etc....how do you balance it alll??

one day at a time sweetie, give yourself a break, tomorrow is 23 years that i lost my dad and i am still grieving! its not all the time but i do have days where it hits me. if you cant make it to the computer, just try to jot down what you are eating. even if it isnt something that you think you should have eaten, i ate so many cookies and stuff this week with all my baking but i made sure to keep track of it until i got to put it in here. exercise has hardly been happening and if i maintain this season i will be happy. dont stop, you are doing so well, a couple of days wont stop you! will be praying for you if thats ok.

im sorry, i have had a ton of losses with family also but could not imagine what you are going through. it will get easier with time though. and christmas is always bittersweet for me also. it is hard because i am a very selfish person and would love for them to be here and not in heaven with Jesus! I think the time we have on earth is fleeting and her time without out you up there is just a blink of an eye and you are the one that thinks it will be a long time. nothing i can say will make it better. it just takes time.i am sorry you are having a rough time of it right now. but remember the rest of your family needs you too. that is how i make it through. i try to concentrate on them.
