Waking up

I have been down on myself for a while now. I've thought...why am I not accomplishing more? why can't I get my shit together? Why can't I.....blah blah blah. Then I read something in a random magazine or book, a mom mentioning the "walking coma" that was the baby's first year. I somehow forgot that my sweet baby boy is not yet a year old. I've been pressuring myself to do a lot more than I did my daughter's first year, I guess because I've done this before or something? So I think, one month shy of his birthday, I'm going to try to stop doing the pressure thing because it's not like it's HELPING me get anything accomplished...it's just making me more tired.

And since not much else is going on...here are some links because I haven't yet figured out how to put them on the side. If anyone wants to help me out with that, feel free.

My favorite mama blog, The Dalai Mama.
My beloved community of crunchy moms, Mothering.
Hysterical blog about beauty tips for ministers.

Would have more but I must go refuel from my "nap dammit" run this morning. It worked, by the way! Sweet baby J is asleep in the jog stroller, and for that we all say Amen.

Hi, chickpastor. If you want a fairly easy tool for linking to other blogs, go to Blogrolling.com. Good luck!
And you're doing well to be running at all, in my humble, mother-of-three opinion.
