Patty,
I can relate, as I'm sure many of us can. In our society, we have a "do it all" theme. There are so many things complicating our lives that we feel sapped of our vitality and guilty when we try to "steal" moments to regain some measure of energy. There has been a lot written about how to simplify and regain your life and I personally could open a library dedicated to that subject! One of the all-around best websites I have ever seen in helping folks (particularly women, but not only women) reverse the energy draining trends in their lives is
Flylady . The woman who started the site has workable solutions, tips, philosophical discourse and fun attitude adjusting challenges and musings.
There
is hope!
