Day 5

Not much new today. I had a busy day at work and am finding it difficult to be the grandmother I would like to be because of my schedule. I think it is very difficult to be a full time working grandmother/mother. This is not something I had to experience before, when the kids where all home and growing up I was a stay at home mom  other than going to college for 9 years. It was a difficult task with so many kids but I ended up graduating with honors. Something I am very proud of. In my job now I work in Detroit, while families of Juvenile offenders. I am helping the families and the youth to change so when they return to their homes it can be a life lasting change and they will not end up in prison. It can be very hard for them and a lot of them feel they are destined to prison life.
Well enough about my job, back to me, today I did real good on the swearing goal, feeling quite lost on my family goals, and feel very loved by hubby, he brought me home a new briefcase for my job, and believe it or not it helps me to feel professional!. LOL
Thanks for the tips on craigslist I found several baby beds. My grand daughter Angel is 14months old, not quite walking yet, I hear. I am very excited to see her have not been able to even hold her yet and anxiously await news from Texas, nope nothing yet....
Anyone have any good ideas to help me balance a schedule, and have more time for my grandchildren and children and parents? if so HELP
I feel like I am sinking!

until we meet again.........
