I’m not telling you it’s going to be easy…

I was so tired last night after Blogopolis. The day was great, I learned some stuff, and my class went well…

But I was a little weepy when I got to the airport. Mum rang me and I burst in to tears. I couldn’t wait to get home.

My boys ran to me when I got off the plane. They were like little ducks all in a row. People smiled and laughed as they all jumped on me. I started to cry a little bit again.

I’m tired. Not like I-need-more-sleep-tired, but tired of something (and I don’t know what!).

I don’t know what it is. Some stuff set me off yesterday and I feel a little heavy hearted today.

You know how you are juggling all this stuff and trying so hard to get it to all land properly… and then it just doesn’t? Yeah, well I think that’s what I felt last night.

I need to re-group. I know though, that I am exactly where I need to be in my life. I am trying harder in life now, than I ever have before… I do believe it will all work out, but sometimes I think we all can get a little disillusioned… Yes? No?

Do you feel like that sometimes? Like, I am trying but where is it going??

Sorry about the soppy post today…

I’m going to spend the day with my family. Amie is coming over. We need to hang out…

    Sooo relate to this post. After yesterday I expected to wake up today soaring, full of energy but instead felt blah, like I missed something yesterday that I hoped I’d fine. Hmmm. Taking a day to relax and refocus…x

    Oh Katrina. You gorgeous girl for telling it like it is, as always. That’s one of your most fabulous attributes – being real. That’s why so many of us identify with you.

    You’ve been on a relentless treadmill for so long. Maybe it’s time to have a blogcation and spend time with your loved ones. Or how about unplugging for a couple of days? Hard, I know, but maybe it’s the game-changer you need. J x

    You have SO much on your plate, it’s not surprising that you’re feeling a little rundown. Blogopolis probably brought it all to the fore because you were away from your family and lots of people probably wanted a “piece of you” (even though good intentioned). Maybe you could try blogging every 2nd day for a little while instead of every day just to relieve some of the pressure? I’m sure you’ll come through this feeling and be reinvigorated (is that a word? It’s past midnight and I’m not thinking straight! Just wrote my own post lol and our embarrassing meeting features). Breathe. Smile. You’ll be okay 🙂

    Hi Katrina,
    I’m hoping that today is a better day for you. Sometimes it does feel like you are running a never ending race, or tredding water and getting no where. Let’s just hope it was one of the those days.
    I’d like to thank you for giving me the inspiration to start blogging. Have only just started- so still learning the ropes.
    Hope you are well.
    All the best
    Joanne

    Oh, I am so surprised you feel this way. You were so warm, open and confident at #nnb2012. It would be exhausting to be a speaker and have so many people eager to meet you and you were so gracious. You made me feel great. You were fantastic but you are allowed to feel worn out etc. I hope you perk up soon. Rachel xx

    You know what i like the best about you? You are so honest about you. Its sooo refreshing. Because yes life is not all beer and skittles, and sometimes its actually nice to hear that other people have crap days too. I don’t wish it on anyone but its nice to hear
    You sound a bit worn out to me, take some time off, be kind to yourself, its been one crazy ride for you and boy what a ride its been :))

    Long time reader first time poster! OMG this is exactly how I feel at the moment too, not sure what it is, but you have described it brilliantly.
    Not depressed, not anxious or nervous just a little…..heavy hearted. That’s it! Hope you are feeling better. Jess
