Overwhelmed!

September 1, 2011

A mere two weeks into the new school year, well short weeks but still, I’m waving my white flag in surrender. I suspect I’m preaching to the choir here and I know many of you have issues far more challenging but
Help! I am overwhelmed!

Three calls asking me to volunteer at school came in yesterday…
Plus two calls the day before…
In addition to the stuff I already signed on to help with

I’ve gone to meet n greets, information nights, open houses, meetings on curriculum, beginning band, you name it, chances are good I’ve attended a meeting for it. Plus I kicked and scratched my way to four prime spots on the parent/teacher conference sign up sheets…. at least I hope April 4th, 2012 at 6:30 is prime.

This is all great and important and of course I want to be in the loop. But the fact that I’ve got a marathon to run in one month and a hip that can’t be trusted just compounds the stress.

What will I do to ease the pressure? I’m sorting that out now. Sorry I haven’t been around the way I like to be lately. Hopefully I’ll be back to my normal crazy self as soon as the routine normalizes around here and I regain some sense of balance.

How do you keep your head above water?

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
