Moving From One Stress to Another...

I’m now done being busy at work (at least until Julyish), but unfortunately, I’m only beginning to be super busy at home. May is a very, very busy month for us. Feel free to relive my past May here…I get stressed out just remembering that month! Thankfully, this year is not as bad :)

-Since I don’t really get a break between January and the beginning of May, I schedule all appointments for May. So yesterday I had a bunch of subcontractors come to my house to deal with issues that had arisen over the last couple of months.

-This weekend is not only Mother’s Day, it’s also my dad’s birthday. I have no presents for anyone yet, so that’s something I need to take care of.

-The week after I have my daughter’s five-year check-up, my son’s haircut, my daughter’s gymnastics practice and the big ultrasound.

-The next weekend is my daughter’s fifth birthday, so there will be a party. This party involves me making food and making and decorating her birthday cake. My sister will be in from Michigan for the weekend and my daughter also has t-ball practice on both Saturday and Sunday.

-The following week we have our kindergarten meeting, more t-ball practices, and then on Thursday we leave for our annual weekend trip to Charlotte. This is always the most relaxing part of May, and I look forward to it every year!

-The week after we have t-ball games and practices and it’s time for the Memorial Tournament here in Dublin, to which hopefully hubby and I will go one day (still waiting to hear if I will get my free tickets).

-That following weekend we are hoping to have a Wii party with some friends of ours!

Phew! Every year it’s this way. But that’s OK, because even though I will be stressed, I will still have a ball throughout it all!

It may be busy, and slightly stressful, but as I like to say it is 'good stress'!

Can't wait to hear how that birthday party goes!
