Even the clocks are too tired to keep up

This is just a tough, tough time of year.  I hate that I feel like all of my posts are about complaints right now.  My life is full of many blessings, both big and small, every single day.  Yet even my husband, who never lets things get to him, admitted last night that he just feels defeated.  It is absolutely exhausting beyond words, but I also know it isn't just us.  In fact, the fact that I am not working outside the home should actually make it easier on us (although sometimes I think the fact that I don't have a distraction makes me dwell on it more, but who knows).

Ironically, even our clocks are having problems keeping up!  We have five battery powered wall clocks here in our house.  Two of them are cruising along just fine, but the other three?  Not so much.  I didn't know that wall clocks could have a life span, but I am wondering about two of them.  I've replaced the batteries in them and yet still they seem unable to keep up...so strange!  Apparently even the clocks are tired from this school year!
