Hi to everyone tonight, Thank you all so much for your replys on my posts last night, I just got to finish reading them now. Well I went back to work today was scary but I managed it actually made me a little stronger, there are times when I just get so overwelhemed with having to take care of everything, like the kids with homework mine are 9th grade 7th, 4th., and after working all day its tough.. I am trying to be super mom and super dad and I know it is going to catch up with me. Why I am missing WH so much?? (no he is still living at home but with me back to work I never see him) After everything he has put me through this past 14 months. Some days it is overwelhming and I feel like I can't go on, but know I have to be strong, I feel like I should not want to talk to him or be with him right now. I am feeling very tired tonight and alone, and I am so glad I found this site to vent my feelings Thanks everyone Sally

Hang in there Sally,<P>Motherhood can be a bit exhausting, huh? I have been a single mom and a married mom and sometimes being a married mom feels just like being a single mom! I'm feelin' ya!<P>Perhaps you could give the kids more responsibilities? Maybe teach the big one how to cook, if they don't know how already? Explain to them how mom needs them to help each other and help mom while the family is going through this difficult time?<P>Maybe the big one(s) can help the little one with homework while mom relaxes in a hot bathtub for 30 minutes? Do you think they would be willing to cooperate with you in this way?<P>It can work. It sounds to me like you need to take the pressure off yourself a little bit and recruit their help. They're all big enough to help mom out!
