I’m so happy that everything has calmed down for Thanksgiving break. There’s that feeling that everything is under control when it’s really not because I still have so much work ahead of me. But that faux/temporary/fleeting sense of control over my life is comforting. I was so overwhelmed before that I lost sight of some things that are important to me. Maybe not, but I just didn’t know how to maintain everything. There has been a lot to handle in the past couple of months (a lot of new things!), and this has left me running to keep pace with my to-do list, rather than figuring out a game plan and staying a couple of strides ahead of it all. I haven’t liked the idea of stepping back even though it would be to get ahead. Well, I’m a moron–what else is new? Everything has gone by too fast.
