I hope you find some time for yourself sometime soon.<BR/><BR/>I also wanted to weigh in on the debate - a mommy zombie is definitely a mombie. I started referring to myself as a mombie when my son (now 3.5) starting sleep in 1.5h stretches at 5 months old. I even used to sing "Mombie" to the tune of the chorus of The Cranberries "Zombie" as my theme song.<BR/><BR/>I'm blathering about life as a mombie at my site http://www.mombie.com if you are interested in hearing someone else complain, drop by!<BR/><BR/>I things improve for you soon.Christine Hennebury (isekhmet/Smartmouth Mombie)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04531188515753089296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12206706.post-1118257723492619382005-06-08T15:08:00.000-04:002005-06-08T15:08:00.000-04:00I also like the word Mombie. And you are not alon...I also like the word Mombie. And you are not alone. My friends Gretchen, Tonya, and cousin Betty will all tell you that babies rule your time and control the chaos around you - yes, you are in chaos! But it doesn't have to feel like bad chaos all the time.<BR/>Don't be so hard on yourself. Why is it bad to be a stripper? Why is it bad to feel overwhelmed? Don't fall into the super mom trap. It's okay if your life slows down, grasshopper - life is a journey, not a destination.<BR/>And if it really concerns you, perhaps we should all read brooke Sheilds' book about post-partum depression - which Tom Cruise thinks is a load of hooey. But what would he know? He's so giddy in love and a jackass and doesn't know a thing about giving birth - he's on my craplist anyway for how he treated Nicole.Mustcahioedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08530605270886322914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12206706.post-1118156433434251912005-06-07T11:00:00.000-04:002005-06-07T11:00:00.000-04:00Didn't I just read about a wonderful practice of c...Didn't I just read about a wonderful practice of creating "an attitude of gratitude"? It seems to me that the way to Enjoy This Time is to look at how interesting each little aspect is. <BR/><BR/>Screw improving things. It's just fun to notice how each thing fits in with each and every other little thing.<BR/><BR/>Want to get rich quick? Count your blessings.<BR/><BR/>Love.ad7amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01672496081612682119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12206706.post-1118155558862346292005-06-07T10:45:00.000-04:002005-06-07T10:45:00.000-04:00'Mombie' is a great word!
