Feeling anxious now. Dh is out and purim is over. The MM is all unpacked but there's a mess everywhere and so much to do. And it doesn't help that there is pesach planning to do to add to my anxiety

I wrote/ typed on another similar one. I’ll share here too.. all day I was feeling so down. I told my DH to take out the kids today.. BhBh he understands and did.. but today to me didn’t feel like Purim.. I felt and still feel very emotional today.. it hit me very hard and still hitting me now about the hostages and the soldiers..please don’t tell me go to therapy..I have s lot going on in my life snd it doesn’t require therapy sessions..

Give yourself a day or so to recuperate from Purim before you start worrying about Pesach.

We just came home from our seuda. Everyone is exhausted from a late night last night, an early morning today, and a crazy busy day. So we dumped all the m"m on the dining room table, checked to make sure all the perishables got put away, and we left everything else to deal with tomorrow. We're all going to bed now. Tomorrow is another day.

You just had to mention Pesach. Thanks. Rolling Eyes

Yeah the mess in my house is causing me to hide in the bedroom. I'll deal with it tomorrow.

It feels so eerie after all the rushing around and noise is over.

DH is a great drunk, but he is past out in bed after episode one of being sick. Thank Hashem it made it into a bucket. I'll be worrying about him all night now.

Yup, well one second at a time today. Men are still out drinking. House is a flying wreck. I got the little ones to sleep. Going to take a long bath and relax. Then I will set a timer for half hour and put in a good podcast. Whatever gets cleaned up then great . The rest is tomorrow’s mess cuz guess what- kids are all how. And wii be eating junk again all day and making another mess so a spotless kitchen will just disappoint me tomorrow. Going to first focus on putting away perishables and clearing counters , if time sweeping the floor. I’m not touching any kids mm. First thing Tom I will tell them that anything not in a bag labeled with their name is Hefkeer.. that always does the trick. Also, tonight I let my self drink just a bit… ( like 1/2 cup ) I can relax too…
