Simplify!

I shared this post with my fellow Marine wives tonight. Thought it was worth sharing on my blog. Maybe someone who really needs to hear it, will stop and listen!

I just wanted to stress the importance of taking care of yourself during this deployment. Many of us think that by piling more and more on us, it will make time go faster. However, we all know we are superheroes, but we can only do so much. If you are feeling overwhelmed, please take a look at what you can simplify. Believe me you will be glad you did when we start the long stretch. ;) As Holly has told us... It really is all about survival and doing the best you can. No one expects you to do it all. I know I personally saw it as a failure when I had to make cuts in my life. But, I know in the long run it was the best choice!
