ALL MY TABS ARE OPEN & UNFINISHED

Being a mom means you probably have 10, or more, started, yet, unfinished tasks you’re all doing at once.

For me, this is what I find one of the hardest things of being a mother. I can’t begin and complete one task without doing at least 1 or 2 more in between. This way of “living” honestly makes my brain feel like the static on a television set. You know, when you used to accidentally turn to channel 1 on the old school televisions?

Example, I could be in the middle of making my little breakfast for the day.

She poops.

Have to stop making breakfast to clean her diaper.

Go to wash hands, return to breakfast, but in the time I went to wash my hands she’s gotten into something she isn’t supposed to be in.

Stop making breakfast, again, to get a handle on that situation.

Go back to making breakfast.

Finally complete making breakfast.

Get her in her settled so she can eat her breakfast.

Go pour myself coffee, go to add almond milk to it. She wants her milk with breakfast, go retrieve the milk.

It needs to be rewarmed.

Rewarm it.

Give it to her.

I think you get the jist of how an entire day goes…

Honestly, I think that’s why I like working.

I can start and complete ONE entire task. I feel less brain scrambled and honestly less frazzled, anxious and to be frank less like a crazy person.

Don’t take me the wrong way, I am honoured and blessed to be a mother to my little. However, that doesn’t mean at times motherhood can’t make me feel legitimately crazy.

What’s the hardest part of being a mom for you? Can anyone relate to my feelings?
