how do you know?

How do you know when you're at the brink of a complete breakdown? I think I am there. Really, truly.
There has to be some kind of max limit on the amount of stress one person can deal with before completely losing their wits.

Currently, I am moving. By myself. Ok, not exactly because I have my children to helpget in the way; but still.. by myself, using my car. Hopefully someone I know with a truck will actually be able to help me move the few larger items I have (like beds) by next weekend, or I don't really know what I will do. I have to give up the keys on Sunday night.

I am really beginning to rethink why I even decided moving was a good idea. I mean, yeah, I will save about $150 a month in gas, and gain over an hour of drivetime each day, and my rent will be less- but still. I am completely overwhelmed.

Completely.

And, as if that isn't enough, Nathan seems to be teething or something because all he does? Cry. I feel so terrible and I don't know if maybe my stress is contagious?

Add to that the fact that I just signed the parenting plan for Ava establishing joint custody, and that I over-zealously booked myself for a couple of charity medical clinics coming up (that include multiple planning/training meetings), the usual money stress that comes with being a single mother, and you have yourself one BIG mess.

Somebody please come save me because all I can think about is how badly I want to hide in my closet and cry.
