Barely staying afloat.....

So here I am down in the land of sunshine and beaches barely treading water. I am trying very hard to stay afloat.

Some days I feel so tired with all that I have to do, and I wonder. Does it ever get better? I am blessed with a loving husband, a wonderful family, and great friends (among many other blessings).

But some days everything that is bad and stressful just gets to me.

I currently work a five day a week job, along with another part time four day a week job. And I am in graduate school (almost finished, 6 classes to go!). And then I also volunteer quite a bit with a local animal rescue, and soon with the sea turtle rescue.

This is on top of the other duties and jobs that come with being an adult of course. Laundry is no fun.

Some days the weight of all of this just crushes me. If its not one thing its another. If I end up passing my last class, then my GPA dips too low. And if I manage to find the time to do one chore, its at the expense of something else. I guess others would say its about priorities. But I have always been a stubborn mule. I want to do it ALL. And I don't want to do it halfway. But what do you do when there is simply not enough time in the day? What gives?

I think I am frustrated because I don't want to give any of it up. I want it all to magically work out. I want to have superhuman abilities to fit it all in and not feel exhausted or behind. Ugh. What can I do? Keep doing what I am doing, and try harder I guess.

Anything else makes me weak right?
