mostly I am a glass 1/2 full type of person............. occasionally I get 1/2 empty and I am feeling a bit that way this week...........
I've/we've been busy..........we've had 2 lots of visitors...........busy work days..........Mr Chookyblue and the kids have been out most days fencing while I worked..........some cattle work...........we are supposed to be shearing but we are delayed with that job so hoping that will be this coming week...........
everyone is a little tired so a quieter weekend will be in store.........and no hoping in the car to go anywhere for anything...............
lots of things on my mind............so much to do and not enough time to do it all in.....
..pulled here and there.......
I know we all have times like this so I am sure it will pass - it is nice I am also not trying to manage the school bus and that routine and I have next week off work - some time at home which I am sure will be helping with shearing...............maybe I will be 1/2 full again.......but then again I could be working with sheep.....so maybe not.........
really need some rain too..........i'll enjoy my time with the family.......I just feel so tired all the time....
if you have school holidays at the moment I hope you are having a nice time.........
and such a nice cool change today........under 19degC most of the day.......so nice....
.........take care til next time.....Chookyblue.........

I'm hearing you...pulled in too many directions with too many urgent things...AND school hols...Miss Beth has had to come to work with me.....which was fine until half way thru' day 3...can't blame her...need a "normal" week to get some serious work done and get on top of things..Jan
Hope things settle down soon, so you can enjoy your family!! Keep smiling!!!
Hope you can get a bit more rest, nothing worse than being tired all the time although in reading your post, it seems that may not happen for a while. My grandson is back at school now after the holidays. Can't believe how fast the time goes between drop off and pick-up. Hugs....
Don't forget to take care of yourself too. X
no wonder you feel tired Chooky its a busy life for the family on a farm,dont be too hard on yourself and hope you can fit some down time in,take care and rest when you can my friend,hope your weekend is a good one.xx
You needs little rest now and again Chooky,or you will be fit for nothing.Stay half full and take care of yourself.xx
Life can get like that sometimes Chooky - enjoy some time off next week
Hope you get a little me time of the weekend...
Sounds like you need some quiet time Chooky, I hope this weekend gives it to you.
Hugs

Never enough hours in the day - I imagine that is especially true when you have youngish children and a farm to keep going. Try to rest and have a bit of time out - a big hug - hope the glass is half full soon.
We've just been back from hols one week, so I'm looking forward to this weekend to just chill. Could have raced off to melbs to quilt convention, but I think my time would be better spent hibernating out in my garden and breathing deeply for awhile. Did I tell you my AS child ran away from home?? Found him out at the Uni...he'd booked himself into the res! Didn't think to tell anyone! The glass will fill again.
Life gets like that sometimes does nt it, school holidays always seems busier at our place and this one is no exception.....
It s raining here today and miss s and I plan to go for a long drive day tomorrow and the I start nights on Monday ....
Ahhh wish I was back on holidays .... Lol
Hope you get some rest soon
This year has been a tough one dear Chook...flow with it and try to get some rest....you will refill!
Thinking of you..... as you say it will turn around but I know it is not easy during the half empty times.... big Hugz

Take some time to recharge the batteries Chooky.....we all need some 'Me' time now and then. Take care
AAAahhh Chooky if I could I would come round and top up that glass of yours to full again! I so feel for you...life can be tough sometimes running a farm....what with animals....neverending jobs.....kids.....weather, the lot! Hope you can find a little me time this weekend!
I raise my glass to you...sending Hugs your way xoxo
Sending you a massive "peg" hug...xxx
It's not good when life becomes Overwhelming
Take A Deep Breath Hope you get that Rest
You Need
Take Care
xx
Hoping for a bit of catch up time for yourselves over this weekend. It is hard to find that time when being pulled in every direction and so much needing to be done. We are all thinking of you but that doesnt ease the work load. Take care. xx
Hoping for a glass full for you soon Chookyblue! I to am looking forward to a holiday! Mine starts today!
Hang in there Chooky and try to find a little me time even if it is sitting somewhere quiet with a cuppa - thinking of you!
Yes always stressful when you are pulled in so many directions. Make sure you really do try to take time out to smell the roses
What nice to read about your glas half full or empty we use here in holland the same words for the same feelings. Ooh many excuses for my poor english! I hope you understand it. A byby from here Carina
Hoping you get some rest and catch up with some sleep and rain lol!!
I so relate! Today, I took the day off, despite numerous things that "needed" to get done. It felt great. Made me realize that I am responsible for the pressure I put on myself. Hope you find your balance! Hugs!
Hope you are soon feeling "refilled" dear Chooky! Remember there is only one of you so take care of yourself!
sending a big hug...(and glass full of water)!.. Hope you get a break next week.... stay cool Xx
I hope you feel better !! I send you many positive thoughts to refill your glass !
Florence
OH Chooky, I wish I could come and give you a BIG hug!! Sometimes life is just like that and you just have to go with it, but just make sure you take care of yourself.
Looking forward to seeing you in July - wish it was sooner! xxxx
Hang in there Donna -- if your winters are a bit like ours, outside work slows down and you can take a break inside a bit. And you're lucky you don't have Christmas thrown into the middle of your winter!
Hope you can get back to that half glass full feeling. I'm a lot like you at the moment and my glass is feeling rather empty.
It works Chooky, it must be the way they have it set up on there accounts
Thanks for your help!
Chin up Chook.. Have some bubbles and enjoy the kids being home and that you are a super farmer and a super woman, that you can do more than many women out there and that you are loved by all of us and your family even though life is lemons sometimes........ Hugs and hugs....Hoping for rain for you too.......
Hi Chooky, I so understand exactly where you are coming from.. been there, doing that!! You know, the moment it rains, everything will change for you. We are so at the mercy of the elements, just waiting for that elusive rain can be depressing. Will be thinking of you, hope you are able to have a lovely time with the kids on school holidays. xxx
Donna, I hope things are settling - be careful, I don't like the sound of that tiredness. I battled for maybe 6 months and the end result hasn't been nice. I think of you often and have wondered why all has been quiet for a little while, but then I'm not exactly in the loop either.
Lots of hugs - Lurline.
