I'm Trying

Just call me Sisyphus. Minus the whole chronic deceitfulness thing.

I am trying:

  • to make the best of our new apartment even though it was previously inhabited by smokers and there is extensive water damage.
  • to not take it personally that a manager at work is being a power-hungry jackass and doesn't think I'm enough of a "team player" to work in the bar.
  • to not stress out about the lack of hours Todd is getting scheduled which is forcing me to pick up as many shifts as I can.
  • to not worry about how our bills are going to get paid each month.
  • to not panic that we aren't pregnant yet after four months of trying, and more than that of not not trying. 
  • to not hate my body's shape.
  • to not get frustrated with Todd or the children on an hourly basis.
  • to get caught up with laundry.
  • to get caught up on dishes.
  • to unpack more boxes and make this place feel more like home.
  • to not compare myself to others so much.
  • to try to think of a good enough reason to tell my Dad why we didn't Skype him today after Todd and I had a fight.
  • to not be depressed on Sundays and not want to go to church because that means I have to smile, be nice, and socialize.
  • to have patience through all of this.
  • to not break down and cry right now.
