That's a little what I've been feeling like lately. I am just a wee bit emotionally out of balance. Ok, wee might be a bit understating things. I am quite a bit emotionally out of balance.
Technically, I guess that I have the right to feel that way. Over the past two years (and the very near future), this is what I've been dealing with:
- Sending a son off for two years
- Building a house (where I get to make all the decisions about how it comes together)
- Selling a house
- Moving from a place I've lived for 15 years
- Getting settled in a new place
- Having a huge extended family crisis resulting in numerous stresses, tears, uncertainty, pain, and then dealing with the new family "normal", which so far isn't really very normal to me at all
- Having a daughter get married (with a reception in the backyard of new house in a yard that a few weeks before the big event was a big pile of dirt!)
- Having daughter and new son-in-law move a few states over
- Get first son back, immediately send him off to college an hour away
- Send second son out for two years to foreign country full of scary news stories
