The manic: It's after 11. I'm doing laundry and dishes and prepping for tomorrow's Seder. Did I really have to start the laundry? Probably not. Could I help myself? No. Would any sane person fill her dining room table with clean laundry the night before having people over for a big ceremonial meal? No. Am I sane? No. Oh, I suppose that goes without saying or I wouldn't be here.
The depressed: Well, I'm finding myself in a position where my lack of a "real" job is starting to get to me. It is hard not to be contributing financially to our household. Perhaps most of all, I worry that I am no longer as interesting to be around as I used to be. I think this is probably common among many SAHMs who are new to the job. But the fact that lots of other people experience the same thing that you do doesn't always help. It isn't helping me now.
Am I over tired? Yes. Should I go to bed? Yes. Think I will do the sane thing and do just that. After I fold the laundry that just finished in the dryer.
Over and out.
