The Weekend Struggle

Another week down. Every week I try not to think of what’s happening in the world; I put my head down and work at home like I always do (and thankfully have live-in childcare to support that), but the weekends I really feel it. That’s when the reality sets in and I struggle. I struggle entertaining/not yelling at my kids. I struggle with never having any rest or alone time. I struggle with my incessant need to always be doing something (however my first attempt at chocolate biscotti this weekend was a good consequence of that need). My struggle is minimal compared to others, I know, but we all struggle, and it’s not a comparison game. We didn’t ask for this fight, and we’re all tired of it. But let’s all be strong enough to stare it in the face, new everyday, and give it hell. Photo by @alexiscuarezma - Clothes from @carbon38
