Thread: Finally....

I have gotten a little motivation today and cleaned my living room, dining room, and bathroom! Its been over a week since I have been able to get anything done! This heat has been outrageous along with just not having any energy period!! Anyone else feeling like they could do a whole lot of nothing all day, every day??

I also feel like the sun in seeping my energy right out of me. I finally got it back, felt like getting things done... and now, WHAM, the energy is gone. I so could use a nap right now, but of course when I need ones, then the kids WONT lol

Even when I take a nap every day with my kids I STILL dont have any energy left over! I work split shifts, an hour in the morning, and 2 hrs in the evening. Those tend to drain me as well! I hate doing it, but some income for me is better than nothing! We got really behind on bills when I got put off work for those couple of months and now we are trying to catch up and get things for the baby! UGH!

Other than that one day of weird cleaning urges I have become very tired lately, I wake up tired and spend the day tired then go to bed when the kids do. I've even contemplated giving up work early but I know that just isn't realistic

Congrats on getting your house work done though! It's a great feeling especially when you are so tired.

Pretty much. Still hoping to find energy go through boxes of baby stuff. Somewhere in all of that is a play dish set for DS that he'd rather like to go with his play kitchen (given to us before we needed it and got thrown with the baby stuff). *sigh* I'm good about making lists....that I don't accomplish.

Oh me me! I am glad to know I am not the only one who is wiped out 24/7. I feel the same way. I could sleep all day every day. I can only guess it's the heat? I don't remember feeling like this in my previous pregnancies. Last night I fell asleep and missed all the fireworks in the neighborhood! I feel sorry for my family. I feel like they are getting a wiped out, moody wife and mom all the time, but they seem to be understanding. Even 6 year old DS has been super sweet and patient about my lack of energy. I hope this gets better though. I don't like being tired all the time. At least I know this is only temporary and I will feel like myself again eventually even if it's after I have the baby.

I don't have much energy at all this time. Part of it is the heat in the midwest right now, it is really draining. Part of it is Ellie's care, which takes a lot of my week. I would really like to get some big projects done this month before we start homeschooling again in August. Sigh. We'll see.

Me, too! I'm completely wiped out. My body just feels tired all the time, so I'm physically and mentally exhausted all day every day. I'm thinking the heat has a lot to do with it, but I am trying to stay inside as much as possible. I could literally fall asleep at any given moment, laying down or sitting up
