How old is your daughter, and is there some way you can get a break, even if it is just for an hour or two? I used to have my MIL come get my daughter when I felt stressed out like that and still have days when I just need a mommy break...if I don't have her to come get them then I do a "quiet time" where everyone goes to their rooms for an hour or so and they can do whatever they want, but they have to stay in their rooms and I go into mine as well and just scrapbook or do something relaxing, maybe read.
Anyway, you have to find a way to relax some so I am trying to help you brainstorm. If your daughter is young, it's a great time to start the "quiet time" idea and by the time she is older she will just be so used to it as mine are now...but I used to call it "play time in our rooms" to make it sound more fun when they were little. You need to rest...taking care of yourself is just as important as caring for everyone else, us mommies have to learn that the hard way

Funny thing is, I'm just dying to move to North Carolina! I am plotting and planning for some day when it may become a possibility We should switch places!
Oh, no! I will keep NC, but you can join me
It took a long time, but I feel like this is home now. When I go back to visit in Ohio everything has changed so much it is like a new place. I don't feel Grove City is where I grew up even, it is so much bigger now. It's HUGE compared to when I was growing up there actually! Just nothing seems the same there and I feel more at home down here...I guess that is how it goes in the grown up world
