So I started work today. Actually it’s tomorrow because I am writing this post late Sunday night in hopes that I can at least share with you all my plan for succeeding at doing tooooo much. I mean I might be a little crazy to think that I can have a full time job teaching, blog full time, be a mom full time, a good wife full time and also find room in there for myself. Maybe I’m trying to do too much. It has certainly felt that way this summer. After all the drama surrounding my daughters arm and the time spent in the hospital and driving back and forth to the hospital for follow ups. EVERY. SINGLE. WEEK. I am going crazy. I had such big plans for getting ahead and for being prepared for this very day and it has all just slowly slipped away from me.
I spent this past weekend hanging out with my husband celebrating our anniversary (only 3 years married!) and trying to relax. There will be plenty of time to be crazy in the coming weeks I told myself. And there will be. This week might be one to do me in. For reals. I mean let’s recap: I start my new job. My son also starts soccer on Monday. My daughter has a follow up emergency appointment on Tuesday. More soccer on Wednesday. Open house at my son’s school on Thursday. So far Friday night is free, but I think I will probably pass out as soon as I get home from all the stuff going on this week.
I am trying to get ahead, I promise I am not leaving you. I love my blog, it’s like a fourth child. One that doesn’t talk back. 😉 I spent an hour yesterday making freezer meals for the whole week. That’s right 1 hour = 5 meals. Best plan ever. Plus I finally bought a new crock pot! It’s only been 2 years since I broke our old one. I had planned on sharing some of my freezer meals with you today, but I just didn’t get pictures taken. I thought about taking pictures now, but they are all frozen bags of goodness (and not that fun to look at) at this point.
It’s going to get easier I know it is. I am going to find my rhythm, and once I am in that groove it will be easier, but until then…crazy town. So please bear with me through this HUGE transition time, and know that I am coming back to you…eventually.
