Dealing with the Mom Guilt!!!


There is a saying that Women can't do it all.  I don't know the answer to that.  I'm still figuring it all out but I sure am trying to prove whomever started that rumor wrong!  Oh it is so hard.  I'm so tired I practically fall asleep anytime I sit down.  I drank 3 sodas today.  I never drink 3 in a day.  

I'm trying to finish one goal: a new degree in English (my original studies were in theater) and I've been doing classes here and there but this semester is a full time thing but of course Chris keeps me busy with the company stuff.  Rachel just got approved for DDPre (developmentally delayed pre-school) and Physical Therapy.   Cally needs speech and will be starting at the University program Harm is still in.  It is like I'm living in a blender.  

So I feel guilty when I go to school.  I know I shouldn't.  I have done nothing but take care of everyone else.  It makes me wonder what I should do as the next step.  I have always had a lot of dreams and I think now is time.  I keep putting them off.  But how do I get over the mom guilt???
