Running away

Today is the first time ever that I sat in my car in the driveway wondering how hard it would be to drive away and never look back. I did not leave but the thought was there. I love my family but lately I just feel like they all want too much of me and I'm losing who I am. My husband is terribly depressed over not working, my youngest has been sick for it seems like a million years, my middle one is trying to find his way to manhood and needs guidance, my olderst childs girlfriend is pregnant and she needs guidance, love and support and that leaves my oldest he just needs me in a general purpose. Of course on top of this is my job and my house that both require my attention. I have never questioned my being a wife and mother but today for the briefest of moments I just wanted to put the car and drive until I found something that didn't require my attention. I am glad this was a brief moment but boy oh boy I need the Good Lords wings and support to get through this period in my life.

  1. Probably doesn't help matters when you have a whiny and needy friend on top of all that. Sorry if I've added to your load...
