Day in the Life of One Woman

Lately when I write I noticed that I have been writing about my lack of sleep and non existent energy levels.  This is starting to affect my performance in school and my everyday routine of actitvities.  So I have decided to make some small subtle changes to my diet and sleeping rhythms.  First & foremost my husband and I are (once again) giving up soda!  We are also incorporating more fresh fruits & vegetables in our meals.  We are also replacing our whites (bread, rice, pastas) with whole grain wheats (or brown rice).  My husband is limiting his tortilla consumption, which will be hard to do for him!  We are going to do everything possible to set a schedule & stick to it!  This will organize our hectic schedule and prioritize our tasks giving us free time to connect with eachother at the end of the day & get to bed early enogh to be energized in the morning.  The changes in our diet will help to counteract the lack of energy...

So I'm opening a blog with SoLatina.com and I'm super excited about it because, unlike this blog, it will be read by so many people.  The Latina community will be reading so it makes me a bit nervous to know that a group of my peers that I don't even know will be reading and critiquing my work!!  Yikes!!  My nerves are shot!  In this blog I share thoughts and feelings but I know that only people that I know are reading this (at least for now)!!  I can be myself and not worry, although I'll be doing that in my new blog I will be getting nervous!  Wish me luck everyone!!! SoLatina.com Here I come!!!

This past week it seems as I haven't baan able to sleep a winak!  I don't really know what it is thats keeping me awake at night! My mind seems to be racing a mile a minute and no matter how tired my brain gets or how heavy my eyes get I just can't sleep! What's wrong with me?  It's 2:30 in the morning, my husband's back in town & here I am BLOGGING!

So today, I'm just having one of those days where life seems to be getting the better of  me.  I feel horrible!  I'm tired, irritable, and sleepy.  The kids are driving me nuts!!!! I just want to quit!  My van wants to give out on me, my husband is out of town on business and I have 4 demanding children.  I'm praying to God that my van doesn't give up on me!  I just started a training session with my kids Head Start, to become a Substitute Teacher and I would like to continue with the training to possibly become a Teachers Assistant.  This could open doors for me as far as my career goes, but if my van breaks down HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET THERE?!  I also want to continue going to church services, but again with no vehicle how do I get my kids there?
