worries

This week it seems like I have almost had too much time to think- to think about life, to think about the what will happens, and the how will I handle this when it comes, and the am I prepared for this? What am I going to do when school finishes in three months? Am I going to fill my time with good things instead of watching tv all day? How am I going to teach my daughter and make sure she learns and grows so she is rpepared when she gets old enough to go to school. I don't feel qualified to do that! I don't feel like I know how to teach that kind of stuff. What do I teach a 1 year old? How do I teach it? Then there is the worries of whether I am spending enough time playing with her and doing those things. I feel so guilty doing my school work instead of spending time with her. I feel like the days just fly by, and that I do too little with her, and too much for me. Then there are the worries about whether I am doing enough for Scott, or enough for the other members of my family, or my friends. Am I serving enough? Am I treating others with respect? I feel bad when I don't smile to someone when they seem in a bad mood or whatever. Just worried. I am sure you get like that sometimes. I'm worried about finishing my goals. I am tired of this whole weigthtloss thing. Tired of counting calories. Tired of worrying about it. I want to go a week without worrying about it. I will still eat healthy, but i just don't want to worry about the calories. just make sure I eat my fruits and veggies.

Anyway, sorry, just got a lot on my mind. I really have had a great day, just sometimes ya get to thinking, you know?

You are not alone. Have you ever seen (heard of) the movie "Phoebe in Wonderland"? Anyhow...the mom played by Felicity Huffman gives this monologue speech towards the end of the movie. She just unloads all of her fears to her husband. Well, needless to say it is worth seeing just for that scene.

Need we wonder why they call idle hands (in your case mind) is the devil's tool box (or something like that)? Your idle mind has you doubting yourself. You're great in all aspects! Just keep your priorities straight and love those around you. As for teaching K, it's all fun and games at this age. Maybe find a play group to join for interactive group play, and allow you to socialize. Now that you vented your worries, do you feel better? I hope so!
