There is just always something to do. Always. Even if it is a fun thing- it's still something. I mean, "Welcome to life", right? I don't even have a kid yet- so I know my "busy, crazy, tired all the time, working non-stop, burning the candle at both ends" days are not even at their peak. But I still feel tired and (relatively) over-worked. Stop my pouting, already. Stop whining, you wimp. But . . . I just want to whine a little.
I think the true sign that I'm actually falling into the abyss of adulthood is that I am actually wanting true alone time. I'm not really an "alone" type of person. I love being with people. When I want to get away- I usually want to get away with friends. But recently I just find myself wanting 24 hours of nothing to do, nowhere to go, no one to see.
That said- I have loved all the things I "have" to do, also. I love visiting with family and friends, volunteering for church, hosting guests, completing projects, teaching, going to grad school, working and feeling productive . . . but then I also just want a break from it all sometimes, too.*
Maybe I just need a nap.
*Note to all friends and family- I love you and don't want to stop seeing your lovely faces! Like I said, I just wanted to whine for a minute. Okay- I'm done.
