Some days are just hard. Bipolar Disorder takes no vacations. It’s full time 365 days a year. Today I have not showered, let alone cleaned the house. I took Angelica to and from school and took care of the dogs. That was about all I could do.
I want to be honest about that because I talk a lot about the importance of homemaking. I strive to inspire myself and others to do better. But sometimes I need a day off. I think we all do. Whether mental or physical, we all get sick sometimes. Sometimes people just get burned out. Days off are not ideal, but they happen. You have to let yourself be human. When I worked in an office I took sick days. It made my coworkers mad, but I was not walking the two miles and then taking the bus required to get there while I had a high fever, head pain, and could barely talk.
However, I have a responsibility to do everything I can to bounce back. To that end, I am writing here. Blogging gives me satisfaction. I really enjoy it. I am also editing old photos and turning on the tv. Hopefully, tomorrow will be a better day. To all my fellow wives and moms who are not scraping by today, I see you. I hear you. I pray your tomorrow is sunnier than your today.
