Is there every a point where you just can't imagine holding your eyes open for even just one more second? There are days where I don't get home until after 10 at night. Lately, those days have become the new normal. Long days are followed by even longer nights. It doesn't seem to be a light yet at the end of this tunnel. It is almost 11 now and the eye are starting to hurt even more.
Tonight was one of those nights. I am just tired and want to get a restful sleep. That won't happen as the alarm is set early....like 4:30. kind of early. I need to get to work on all of the things that I didn't get to do tonight. The laundry won't get itself done, homework for my boys still needs to be checked, the baseball equipment needs to get taken out of the car, the reports need to get written and so on and so on... The list is really never ending. I'm sure I am not alone with all the to do's, but it sure feels like everyone is getting everything done seamlessly. Hopefully soon, I will go back to my previous sense of normal with regular times to get home and no after school meetings. I miss being home with my children and being the one to get them to and from their activities.

I know it's still several days away, but hopefully Spring Break will bring you some relief...until all of the crazy starts again. We appreciate everything you do!

Wow, I thought I was working long days! There is no way I could function going to bed that late each night. I hope things let up for you soon and you have a chance to take care of you.
