When it feels like this sore throat may get the best of me…

When it feels like the stress of work is getting to be too much…

When it feels like I just can’t shake the uncertainty…

When it feels like the weight of the world is on my shoulders…

When all I hear out my window is rain…

I just want to curl up on my couch next to a fire and shut out the world.

But I can’t.

It’s not an option.

I’m a mom, a wife and employee. All these things must come first.

So I take a deep breath.

And I keep on pressing forward.

Because people are counting on me.

And it’s what I do.

Please excuse the vague, melo-dramatic nature of this post…I’m fully aware this makes me sound completely depressed and unstable but I assure you, I’m not… it’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to it’s my blog and I’ll be emo if I want to. And seriously? This cold is starting to kick my ass.
