I got nothing done today. I mean, I got nothing done today. Zero! I feel like a total idiot. Honestly!
I mean, why am I so incompetent? Like I had things I planned on doing, a lot of things. I ran around all day. I’m exhausted. I mean, how do I run around all day like a crazy lady and get nothing done? Nothing!
So, yeah. Motherhood is going great!
And I bet tomorrow will be the same. I wake up. I’ve made all these plans, all these things, this big to-do list I need to get done. And I will get nothing done! I don’t know what’s wrong with me.
It’d be nice at the end of the day, you know, I could like back and go, “Wow, you did a lot, you did great. Good for you. Pat on the back.”
But now every day just goes by and it’s like… I don’t know. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I got nothing done.
