I guess they look up to me and I need to be a good example for them. Sometimes I would rather go to my room and nsp, especially after a big dinner, but they don't understand.john vicenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6081501258026244823.post-45288253015472362012015-02-28T08:11:54.242-08:002015-02-28T08:11:54.242-08:00I'm working on my sanity.

The barrage of questions would corrode my thoughts, the constant need for me here and there would steal the day away, and the rest would simply tire me to the point of passing out(which is my prefered way of falling asleep). If I let myself rest, I overthink things. I go into a world of “what if” or “we are not even specs in this vast universe” and questions of the like. If I was given a day off, (I throw my weekends and time to helping my grandparents and their friends[A never ending job, thank god]) I would probably be driven insane, if I am not already.

Although my situations are not are serious or consecutive as yours, i can relate to needing time for myself. Everyone needs time to not think about anything and just relax. You are a man with a amount of patience that cannot be described. I envy your patience and persistence to keep your life organized and happy for others. Just remember that your the reason why your family keeps from falling apart, so credit goes to you Mr. Ogle and always enjoy your time for yourself.

In the mornings I attend school, then I go to my volunteer job. After that I normally go home and get ready for work at McDonalds and work until 10 pm. Some nights I even have to stay awake late in order to get all my homework done. There have been days where I have lashed out on people because I am just so exhausted. To fix this problem, I changed my availability to make more time for myself and to get the rest I need.<br />- Chelsea Allen 2nd hourAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6081501258026244823.post-20292303764947180872013-12-15T15:05:18.166-08:002013-12-15T15:05:18.166-08:00Life can get very crazy at times.

Going from school, to basketball practice, to extra curricular activities, doing your homework, and then waking up and doing it all again is very stressful. It's very hard to stay clam and not go insane. Every now and then I think we just need to stop and take a breather for ourselves.<br />-Lydia Switzer 1st hourAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6081501258026244823.post-69329577953212861202013-12-15T14:33:54.875-08:002013-12-15T14:33:54.875-08:00During the Summer time i feel like my life gets th...During the Summer time i feel like my life gets this way. working from 8-5 every day then going out to my dads and thern working till 11 that night. It gets tough at times trying ton wake up and go to work. But it's something that needs done every week.In the off season we get some what of a break but with stripping the car down and sending all the pumps and motors off. Once that is done then we have to put it back together which is a long process. So the off season is much needed for my dad and I to kind of catch our breathe and have a little relax time<br />-Garrett AitkenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6081501258026244823.post-51503520110631372002013-12-09T17:15:16.872-08:002013-12-09T17:15:16.872-08:00I think we all have known or know what you were fe...I think we all have known or know what you were feeling like before you got your sanity back. It's really hard sometimes to take time for yourself, whether you are a teacher, student, parent, or a friend. Between going to school, helping my parents watch both my younger siblings, being in a numerous different clubs at school, and trying to juggle all my schoolwork; sometimes it is very hard to try and find time for yourself. We all just need to take some time for ourselves. <br />-Faith Fox, 7th HourAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6081501258026244823.post-51578559557181940202012-03-08T16:55:55.255-08:002012-03-08T16:55:55.255-08:00I completely understand what you were feeling.
