I am in a funk! I hate winter, I hate the cold, I am tired of being cooped up. I have no energy, I don't want to be creative, I don't want to exercise (and I really want to lose 15 pounds), I don't want to cook, I am sick of going to the grocery store. I don't want to go out into the cold and try and get horses in shape. I am sick of cleaning up the same messes day after day time after time! I am sick of screaming my head off all day, "Stop, quit it, be nice, don't say that word, get off your brother, no, BODEE!" I am sick of being exhausted and feeling like a horrible mother! Do you think maybe the sun could come out of hiding and be about 79 degrees, my children not fight for an entire day, keep themselves and their surrounding clean, be respectful to me and their father, be grateful for what they have and what their parents do for them. Maybe they could love eachother and actually play without violence. Do you think just for a day they could feed, bathe, dress, and entertain themselves and let me just lay in the sun?
Okay I am okay, do I just need some vitamin e that comes in the form of sunshine or do all mothers feel this way?

Oh Laura!!!! So glad im not the only one!!! Im so depressed and ornery this week!!! You arent the only one. I have been taking Vitamin D and I dont know if its helping or just a waste of a pill. LOL Good luck and just know you arent alone! :)
Hopefully you have read my complaining, thenyou might just see I feel the same way! I think that we all feel this way in January and Febrauary. As for the fighting It doesn't stop but it does get easier. Just hang in there. Jody
You are not the only one. I feel the same way on days, but sometime my goes into the summertime when there is sun. you are normal and I think every mother feels that way. Hang in there.
P.S. Thank you for the big birthday cookie I loved it and it was good too.. your a good friend
Sounds like you need a girls night out! When are you available???
There is something to be said about the happiness that comes from blue skies and sunshine. Just a few more weeks and we will all be loving the beautiful spring weather. Hang in there. I'll send you a link to something you need to read that I know will make all those feelings go away.
Laura.. I've been feeling 'blue' as well.. This smoggy, foggy, gray blah sky is really awful.. I've been cooped up in my house & I can't even bring myself to get ready most days.. I just sit & be happy for my baby.. but I'm in an awful funk too.. I've been thinking about hitting a tanning bed.. Someone told me that helps a bit.. Just a few more weeks.. hopefully!
This is the hardest time of the year! The winters here are so long! I need the sun too!!! Plus, life bing a mom of boys is so much easier when you can send all of that energy outside!
p.s. I like Angie's idea of a tanning bed. That sounds nice right now!
you think winter is bad in Utah, you should try Ohio! The sun NEVER shines! It is horrible! At least it's cold in Utah, but the sun shines a lot! Winter is absolutely miserable here! Spring is right around the corner though! CAN'T WAIT!
