It seems I've become unbalanced, again. I started a training program to get ready for a triathlon that I've recently decided not to do. (I know, I know disappointing) And yet, I'm still training to get in better shape. (whatever that means)
The training is stealing time with early morning workouts, newly needed and well deserved afternoon naps, preparing 3 more meals a day. Slowly, the signs of steady deterioration appear around the house.
My children probably don't know how to verbalize the neglect, but I know it's there. Maybe hot dogs and macaroni and cheese for dinner last night pushed Matthew over the edge. I took this as an outward action for inner confusion.
