My Life Thus Far
Unreasonable Expectation
I didn't want to get up this morning. I woke up completely
drained and I've kind of stayed that way all day. I did
have a temporary energy boost after my workout. It lasted
a fair amount of time, but not as long as I needed it to.
By 8pm I hit that proverbial wall and not too long after
that a headache started to settle in. For a minute I
wasn't sure how I'd get through the last hour of work, but
I managed. Now all I want to do is eat something and go to
bed. Too bad Helena's coming tomorrow and I have to get
the house picked up. It's not bad at all, but I'm stifling
the urge to totally clean it from top to bottom. I've got
three kids, two cats, a job (that's increasingly demanding
more and more of my time) and all the responsibilities
that go along with running a household on my own. So what
if there's a little cat hair on the upholstery and a few
crumbs on the floor? Why do I always have to be perfect?
Nobody is, yet for some reason I expect it of myself. Will
I ever be able to let this unreasonable expectation of
myself go? I don't think so. Ciao, I got things to do...
