For the first time ever, I no showed an appointment today. Not an appointment for the kids, nooo of course not. Only an appointment for me, one I have been looking forward to for weeks since I booked it (acupuncture). I was talking about it as recently as Monday and then today came and I forgot. In fact instead of just not going because I was doing something fun, I decided that exact time would be the perfect time to take the boys to the hospital for bloodwork - so NOT fun. (We were the only people there yet managed to wait forever and then the boys screamed for at least 10 minutes while they tried to squeeze blood out of the end of their fingers. Awesome).
At about 1:30 I realized that my 11:00 appointment was long over. I sheepishly called my acupuncturist who of course was very understanding but I was still horrified. I re-booked and asked her to call me the morning of to remind me so I don't miss it next time.
I, the most organized person I know, may be starting to unravel. Just in time for Jordan to go back to work :(
Unravel? Doubtful. Getting a bit frayed around the edges? Maybe. But give yourself some credit.....for 7 months you (and Jordan) have managed to go to the hospital a zillion times, take care of Ri, keep a clean house, keep your family fed, and keep your sanity! Now that things are feeling normal it's about time you let yourself relax a little (in between feeds, laundry, cooking and cleaning for 5!) and maybe, every now and again, it's okay to unravel :-)
