I do love my life, but there is a time to cut back when life gets too busy. I'm just not sure what I can cut. All these things are important and some are VERY required.
I totally understand your feelings. Your little ones added a lot of things into your life. I often wonder what I can drop from my life... not much... more like things keep getting added. Somehow I'm surviving though. We didn't get to celebrate this much either. We did get to do sealings at the temple, but it was 10 minutes away.
ReplyDeleteWhen reading your list I was thinking about how much gas you must be spending right now...!!
I try to combine trips so I don't spend too much gas...but on the other hand...that adds to my stress! You know, trying to do too much on one trip into town. I can't decide if it is better to make more trips and be sane or save gas and get super frustrated.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a wonderful anniversary Celeste.... Hugs!
