Can't a girl just catch a break?!

 

Today we have a guest post from my friend Missy!

Take it away girl…

 

Hello everyone! My name is Missy, and I blog over at The Domesticated Diva.

 

A big thanks to Bonnie for having me here! I blog mostly about my transition from being the most undomestic girl ever to a married girl who is trying my best at homemaking. I share recipes, home decor tips, and talk a lot now about my cute baby!

 

Here is a little about me:

 

I am a born-and-raised Okie, and a die-hard Sooner fan! People say we are arrogant, but I promise I'm a nice one.

 

I am married to a youth pastor. He's is truly the best person I know!

 

We just had our first child, a baby boy named Caleb. He's pretty much the coolest baby ever.

 

I'm a Christian. I try to be a good girl but I mess up a lot!

 

I work as a therapist with homeless adults with severe mental illness. It makes for some very interesting stories!

 

We have the cutest dog, Bauer. He's such a good dog!

 

I am here to talk about something I have recently learned. Sometimes life gets hectic, and our to-do lists get really overwhelming. If we aren't careful, we can become bitter with all that we have to do to take care of our family. Our day-to-day tasks can seem mundane. Like when we have washed our thousandth bottle of the day, we can forget why we are really doing it. Or when we are working on that never-ending pile of laundry (I blame the need for laundry on Adam and Eve, thanks a lot guys!) or cleaning the house again. Sometimes I just don't want to. Sometimes I get upset that I have so much to do.

 

Can't a girl just catch a break?!

 

But I have learned that when I add purpose behind my actions, it helps me feel better about the every day tasks. Yes, I have washed a billion bottles, but I am providing a clean, safe bottle for my sweet boy. Yes, I have cleaned this same spot over and over again, but I am creating a home of refuge for my family.

 

Yes, I have to go to work and I don't always love it...but I am helping provide for my family. See what I mean? It just makes it easier to cope when you know you're doing something good for yourself and those you love! Here are my reasons:

What are yours?

   

Thanks Missy!  I love your words!  What a great motivation going into the new year!

I also want to let you all know that I will be announcing my new Shaklee special (hopefully) tomorrow!
