All over the place

That is the way that I feel right now. I feel as if I am going to lose it at any given point. I feel like I am destined to burst or something of the sort. Have I taken on too much? Gosh how I feel that right now. I don't want to feel this way but I cannot shake the feeling. I am behind at school and that has me terrified. I have to pass each of these classes so that I can move onto the next class and if I miss one grade then I will not be able to apply to the nursing program next January. I worry-too much-I know that. I am scared and I don't like to feel that way. I need to find a way to be able to ask for help with the boys, I need to be able to let the laundry go and the pile of crap on the island...but that is hard for me. I want to be great at home and that to me means more than just loving my husband and kids. I of course know that perfection is out of the question, but I want the house clean and stuff picked up. I want laundry done, folded and put away. I want to be able to cook dinner and get the dishes cleaned and put away. I want to organize things so that life if easier on all of us. I want to be able to spend 2 hours each day on school. I want to be able to live on less sleep. I want to be able to do it all and yes I know that statement alone is stupid. Surely this is the right path...this is my call-right? I think so and at times I know so, but I want to feel that all the time. I want to give into my Faith and let God take over my heart, soul and life. I want to just give it all so that deep inside I never doubt. How do I do that? Lord help me to get where you want me to be, to be who you want me to be...

Keep going sweetheart. You are doing what you always wanted, I hold you in my prayers every night as do many, many others.
You are incredible and so very human to admit that you are overwhelmed and its okay to feel that way.
Take each thing in its turn, if you dont get to it today, you will tomorrow. You are an AWESOME Wife, Mother and friend. Keep breathing, keep praying. Keep going. I know it is so hard to ask for help, you are not that kind of person BUT when you have this amount of stuff going on... its okay... I am here, there are lots of people here. I know I am quiet but if you need anything, call me. There are days that I dont have the kids at all. I will come and watch the boys, help with the housework. Its the smallest thing I or anyone else lucky enough to have you as a freind can offer because God knows what an incredible friend you are too all of us.
Its worth it and we are all here to help.
Know you are loved. So loved.
Asking for help simply makes you more endearing and I love you more for it.... just my 200 cents.
