You are definitely on overload. You can't take care of things at home if you're on the brink of breaking. You have GOT to find some way to get some time to yourself - AWAY from home. There is just too much pressure there, and people are pulling you apart.
Take an hour and go somewhere - when you feel the pressure rising, grab your purse, and tell everyone you'll be back after awhile -- you do NOT need to tell them where you're going. Don't even take your cell phone with you because they'll be calling you constantly. Just leave - go somewhere for a cup of coffee, or sit at a park by some water (if there is any ) and just relax. Nothing is more relaxing than to just sit in the quiet - with no one pulling at your from all sides. You need to do this EVERYDAY. You deserve some quiet time, and you're certainly not getting it at home -- no one seems to respect YOUR needs.
You'll be a better wife and mother if you have your own outlet. Take care of YOU FIRST -- then you can take care of the others. God bless. Hugs, Lee
