(orry for wierd spacing and capitls- issues with computer today)
Is
it just me or is June crazy for all
Of
you ?
For
me work wise it is a huge month and family wise even huger .
I
think we are scheduled almost every night for the full four weeks
for big events and celebrations in the evenings
Throw
in a prom and highschool graduation there and all the pre work to start cegep
in August for one son and we have pure madness!
And
final exams in the French private system are no laughing matter . We are
talking some serious studying going on here . This weekend and the one before they clocked
15 hrs each weekend .. I actually felt so bad for them as seems so so so hard and boring and
tiring !
We
brought Beauty's friend to the cottage am they just quizzed eachother all
weekend and studied with a few tube rides in between . We barely saw Chase as
he was locked up in room studying and when he came downs for dinner he was so
tired he could not even eat his fave meal and fell asleep on the couch
Bear
had provincials for flag all weekend and had to study after . By tonight he was
so tired I found him also in bed or with his books on him at 6:15pm !
And
in between this sports events and dance shows they are in .. White water
rafting .. Arabraska .. Surfing .. Volenteering ... Haircuts .. Clothes shooing
for events .. Confirming summer jobs ... Watching girlfriends dance shows ..
Major triathlons .. Driving theory .. Driving exams ..The list goes on and on an
on .
June
is crazy !!!
And
we try and do a few fun things too (aka annual pool party here last wed night ). Some
kids missing ( one of ours who is performing !) but our show must go on . No
pool party no feel like
Summer
as my sweet friends reminded me last year when I forgot
To
invite amongst the chaos .
And
lately with my news career path I said I felt sad . Part of sad for Me
is sometimes feeling lost and even a little bored . ( I need a lot of action in
my life !)
I
realized today I am actually not bored or sad .. I think I am starting to burn
out actually .
This
is causing me some physical signs
Of
sadness which are getting better now .
With
Three weeks holidays in 4 .3weeks away ( who is counting ?) I feel like that is
precisely what I need .
Since
the big career news 8 weeks ago .. I had not taken a single step to digest it .
Relax .. Transition ..
Process
.. Accept
I Literally
fell into a whole new career . And I think I need a few weeks to :
Not
think
Not
work
Not
email
Not
be in contact with anything stressful
Write
Read
Sleep
Watch
tons ofMovies
and "Lost
"
See
friends
See
my mom
Hang
out with my kids
Kiss
my hubby
Be
on the boat
Swim
Eat
everything yummy
Read
. Read .
Read
Fall Asleep Everywhere
and anywhere
Originally
thought I might take this once in a lifetime
Opportunity
and take Summer
off but that will not happen as impossible with the work commitments I have made
. Plus would make m usual three weeks vacation less special somehow.
So I
opt for June madness . Then lots of flexibility and random days
Off
here and there in July and August besides lots of work
Too
and some great vacation
I
plan to get back to my "Tarina
"
Yup
Even
reinvent her a little
Maybe there is a new and improved Version ?
