Hump week

I need to remind myself that once in a while I can feel this way. But not for long.

I have been feeling flat since Sunday. I felt Drained. Exhausted. Tired. Had Enough. I couldn't be bothered with the slightest thing even if my 3yo was going to tear the house down or ate up a whole packet of lollies he found in the pantry. My mind was somewhere else. I wasn't angry, but I was just flat. My husband thought I appeared much calmer than usual. Because I was just way too tired. Everything seem so distant to me.

I thought I would feel better after a good night sleep. Sunday. Monday. Tuesday. Wednesday. I still felt the same, if not worst. I knew I had to get out of this hole. Went to see my naturopath and told her about it. She gave me some supplements to help lift my mood. I started feeling better by late last night.

Today, I have at least look forward to my day. I went out to get groceries for the household. I went to get myself some new clothes and a pair of shorts for the summer weather. I plan something different for dinner tonight. I still went for my weekly hydrotherapy exercise class. I smell like chlorine now but it did me good.

The thing is motherhood and managing the household can be very demanding and exhausting. No doubt I have had many joyful moments with my kids, but man, they can drained your energy away.

But I must also know that I can feel flat once in a while. This week is just trying to get over the hump.

And I also wish that my husband can just take a day off during the week to spend time at home with me and the kids. No going anywhere crowded. Just enjoying a quiet home life.
