A Peek Behind the Curtain

First, Happy New Year!

Second, allow me to let down the facade of the self-possessed, organized, energetic, happy and productive woman/sex goddess/mother/wife/employee that I love to fantasize is really me.

What?! You weren't fooled? Sheesh.

It's only January 3rd and I'm having a panic attack at this very moment. I feel so overwhelmed by the incredible number of obligations hanging over my head. The very anxiety they are causing is further preventing me from accomplishing any of it.

My hope is that by sending this out to the world some of it will diminish, so I can go back to my peaceful world of soft, furry unicorns and rainbow-striped excrement. It's such a happier place...and way more colorful.

Rainbow poo?? Really? That sounds GREAT!

Happy New Year! Hope you enjoy your fantasy world.

Breathe.

Mara Bee said...

I know that feeling all too well...though the stripey ca-ca is a new one to this lady...

Hang in there, Mamma!

I found my way back to unicorns and rainbows via Clonapin.

Hope things settle down for you soon and that you find some quality "me" time everyone needs now and again. Take care, hope to see you back soon.

Rainbow striped excrement? No wonder you're anxious.

What? You're not a multi-tasking goddess who can do everything without totally having a breakdown? I feel so betrayed. :)

Seriously though, take some time off from your obligations. Invite a bottle of wine to join you.
