Foggy Tunnel

My neighbor once told me that the first three years of motherhood are like being in a dark tunnel as your life becomes so turned upside down and your sense of mental survival is stretched. I decided it is more like a foggy tunnel to me, because it isn't really a dark time of your life but one that is ensconsed in an enveloping fog. I always feel like the fog line is just out of my reach as my lack of sleep, growing backache (from picking up my new 20-lb baby), family stresses, life junk keeps piling on...My blog is just my experience of this fog and my hope that I will reach above the fog line and see my old self again.
