Just need to vent a little...

I was blessed with the opportunity to work from home.. I worked at Starbucks all through my pregnancy and it kicked my ass honestly, but it was a job. I didn’t hate it, I made friends and got free drinks🤷🏻‍♀️ But when I was offered a job to work for Microsoft from home for WAY more money than what i was making at Starbucks I was over the moon. I put in my two weeks and started my new job off great..

Well cut to now, 3 months later. My baby is teething. My house is a DISASTER. My husband is working (he’s gone a week at a time) and I am just lost. I feel this dark cloud of work over my head constantly. My computer is always making noise with emails from people all over the world needing something from me.

I know that my baby girl takes priority over everything. I just want to snuggle her and make everything okay. I’m exhausted. I’m stressed, she can feel my frustration so she gets more upset. I try to be grateful that I get to stay home with her and have a job that lets me do that. But I just don’t know what to do.. she’s currently asleep in her crib, with me sitting on the floor holding her hand and just sobbing. No one told me it would be this hard.

I’ve been eating granola bars all week cuz it’s the easiest to do with one hand. I haven’t had a hot shower all week. I’m behind on work. I need to clean up. I need a break.

How do you guys get through hard times? I just don’t even know what to do anymore..
