Frustration Comes So Easily

Whether it's because of lack of proper sleep or because I spend too much time crawling around on my knees picking up toys, or picking up kids all day long, I'm exhausted, my body hurts, and my patience is not what it should be.

I tried to pray the rosary today while the children were napping, but I couldn't keep my thoughts focused. My anxiety was getting the better of me. I waited until I got home to finish (or rather start over) because there's no point in saying the rosary without putting your heart into it.

I don't know what I'm going to do at this point. I feel like I need time just to get my body back in order because it seems like every day something else stops working properly or there's a new pain that wasn't there the day before. I don't want to seem like a hypochondriac. The pain is real. Carpal tunnel in my right arm keeps me up all night with the tingling and burning. The slightest stuff these days just depletes my energy. I don't know why. Like I said, I need to get myself together.

Heavenly Father, help me to remember to offer up my suffering instead of feeling sorry for myself and all of my aches and pains. Amen.
