I am at work. Taking a short break. I am exhausted. I feel like I'm doing everything, everywhere. Work. Home. I'm exhausted. My back up comes in and leaves. Like last night he didn't even work 2 hours. I am making up for it and I'm so exhausted, I cant work more than 4-6 hours at a time. Management is working with me to hopefully make things better for me. At home, my 18 year old daughter and I are doing almost everything. Even my 4 year old son helps. Apparently, all the guys have to do, is trash. I need to reevaluate things. I am emotional and hormonal so my assistant manager might deal with me crying, but he will understand. Hopefully. Let's hope the rest of my day is better.

Most of the time life is what we make of it. Not always easy to overcome the challenges, but at the same time, life without challenges is boring. To me, challenges are motivation.
