Can I PLEASE Get More Time In The Day?

No one ever said that any of the job titles I hold, be they paid or unpaid, were going to be easy.

Somehow I got it in my mind that as my children got older it was somehow going to become easier ~ what the heck was I thinking?

Now we have school, sports at school, band at school, youth at church, rec league basketball and baseball, cheerleading, 4-H (at least they are talking about it again) & next year FFA! Plus being in a blended family means constantly being in the car toting children to and from this or that or to or from the other parent's house.

Somehow in the midst of raising my children I also raise my husband ~ not really but some days it feels that way. But being a wife is also a job and one I take pretty seriously.

I am the cook, housekeeper and laundry person at our house. I am the grocery shopper, the organizer and the mediator of fights.

I also earn a paycheck by calling people who "forgot" to pay their loan. I get cussed at, talked crazy to and disrespected but it pays the bills so I keep coming here every day hoping that I will soon find a job to accommodate nursing school which is coming up because on top of all the above:

I am also a full-time college student...yes, my plate is extremly full but I wouldn't know what to do with myself if it were't...HOWEVER....

can a girl get a few more hours in the day?


Seriously praying that I can figure out how to transistion into healthcare..have a promising lead but we will see.
