Story of Stress

So last night I was watching Dr. Oz before I went to bed and he talked about canker sores and that they're caused from stress. Well I get canker sores pretty often. So I was talking to Chad about this because I never thought of them being caused from stress. Well Chad agreed that I stress WAY too much over things. Right now I think my main struggle is sitting down to take a breath. (Chad pointed this out) I'm so concerned about keeping up with house work and home work that I forget to stop for a minute. I guess I feel that if I sit down for a moment in the day I'm being unproductive and lazy. I never sit on the couch and I only sit in my Chair when I'm feeding the baby. I try to stay busy all day. I think I clean Cole's room like 8000 times a day so I don't have to start a big project and his room is the easiest to clean. The positive side to this is that I've been really good for the last few months on keeping the house clean. The bad part is that I run run run and when I crash, I crash HARD. Like even today. The boys are having quiet time and when I was pregnant or when I don't feel well (like yesterday) I will lay down but today I feel fine so I did the dishes, took a shower, sorted laundry and now I'm blogging (yes I have blogging on my "to do list") instead of sitting down and reading or resting. In our last Conference session it was pointed out that "my worth is not measured by my to do list" I guess I need to listen to that and just take a break once in a while. Maybe I will post our dailey rutine on here so you all can laugh at me lol...I stress if we don't "keep to the schedule"
