Yes.
This is how I feel right now. I'm running so fast but still not getting anywhere ... and I've only been back a week.
And it's been a hopelessly packed full week too: college, back to school for the Wee Guy, mr ebb traveling, eight weeks plus of housework in waiting, broken stuff just waiting to be repaired, tidying up and storage issues, crusty old pools of dried cat vomit dotted around the house, appointments, deadlines, playdates to organise, crapped out compromised bank account meaning my debit/ATM card is FUBAR, ... and so on.
Right now I'm feeling the familiar wheels of being totally overwhelmed churning in my mind at 5am every morning. I know I can do everything ... somehow I'll find or make the time, though I hate the constant prioritising that goes with it.
But right now I'd just like the world to stop for a while so I can catch up.

Although that would, of course, be just one more thing on an already too-full to-do list. :/

I've made my peace with my world now, gotten my homework under some sort of control and made sure the wee guy is happily back at school. Even the house looks less of a midden now that I've done some basic tidying up and hoovered a floor (just one floor, mind you).
Eeep! there's a pro D day on Friday! damn
