Exhaustion

I haven’t taken the time to write about myself yet, and I’m starting to pay the price. I’m exhausted from the trips to the doctors; trying to keep Ben’s spirits up; trying to be a good Dad for he and Madie; trying to be a good husband for Melinda; trying to take care of my own mental well being.

 It’s much easier to be “Dad” and to take care of everyone else than it is to take time to focus on me. I keep saying I’m going to put a call into a counselor, but I don’t have the energy. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe Monday.

For now, I’ll turn to old stand-by depression fighter - ice cream.
