Dear Everyone,

I'm down and frazzled and blue.  I feel low and frustrated.  Nothing I've planned seems to come to be.  I feel tired of pushing the envelope and feeling like I'm not getting anywhere. 

Granted, I've a lot to be thankful for...but that doesn't console me right at the moment.  I feel I'm being selfish, y'all, but I do feel burned out.

Even cleaning up my room(an endless project) doesn't help.  I have to make it ready for my sister who is coming to visit.  I don't have money enough to create and organize the room properly, and that gets me down.  I have scant time and when I do, I get interrupted.

Thanks for letting me let off steam.  I needed to do this.

Hugs and love, fyrefly52

 

Live, love, laugh, learn.

I've been feeling like that for a whole week.  I did feel better when I went out buying misc household needs at two CDs.  Is your sister the kind of person who scrutinizes everything looks at everything like the white glove test.  Mine is.  That's why I'm not having her here for now.  If your sister isn't concentrate on the things you can do together instead of the room.  fun things that don't cost much money, a museum, even library and look for fun things, exzchange makeup and hairdo tips,  the latest news in the family.  This is all I can think of because I'm still down.
