I got so frustrated I cried in public today. I never do that. It was humiliating. I don’t want to go into the details of it, but life has been hard lately. It seems that Jane is sick with one thing or another all the time (and us). Life is unorganized and chaotic. I’m alone a lot. The little frustrations dog-pile into bigger frustrations. I love my family, and my life, and my job, but sometimes it seems like they’re all at war with each other… and there is only so much of me to go around.

Big, deep breaths.

Big, tearful prayers.
