I Need To Focus On Myself

I am struggling.

I’m struggling with society’s expectations of me. I’m struggling with my knee which still hurts when I do too much or bend it too far. I’m struggling with keeping my house tidy.

Essentially I’m struggling with everything society tells me I need to be doing, and in the process I’m filling my “free time” with things I think will make me happy while ignoring the really important things and especially ignoring what I really need.

The truth is, I don’t know what I need. But I know if I don’t figure it out soon it won’t be good.

I don’t know what taking care of myself means for this blog, but for the time being I’m not going to be on social media. I may post here less often for awhile to focus on myself and my family.

Something needs to change. I hope you all understand.
