So tired...

[WARNING: This is NOT going to be an upbeat post.. ]

Today, I am tired of cooking three full meals and two snacks, times 2 (as each kiddo has different dietary needs), from scratch, every single day.

Today, I am tired of making 6 different batches of nutritional supplements, times 2 (as each kiddo has different nutritional support needs), every single day.

Today, I am tired of the nasty, cold, bone chilling weather, as it makes my fibromyalgia flare up (OK, all the caffeine I consumed today is NOT helping), and the boyos are going crazy being couped up inside all day.

Today, I am tired of doing all and everything that has to do with the boys care and wellbeing (physical, emotional, educational, social, etc., etc., etc., blah, blah) on my own.

Today, I am tired of being mother, friend, therapist, cook, medical doctor, nutritionist, facilitator and God only knows how many other hats I wear every single day.

Today, I am tired of not knowing HOW I am going to pay for the boys next batch of nutritional supplements.

Today, I am tired, tired, tired, TIRED!!!!!

And I just want to go to sleep, hoping that tomorrow will be better....

[now don't any of you dare think that I am tired of caring for and loving my two precious little boys.. I am not.. I am just tired of continuously fighting a loooooong uphill battle.. Yes, how dare I, eh? NEWSFLASH: I am HUMAN!!!]

P.S. Just found this in my mailbox.. and this is making me feel a little bit better....
