Ah but the things that do get done are so rewarding!

It does exist.  Really.  It happens when you become so stressed out about what has to be done that you completely zone out on everything else except for bare basics of a bit a bread and a splash of water tossed at the kids to keep the whining down.  You'll get there.  Only, afterwards, you are so frazzled you don't really notice wheter you are at the beach or curled up in a ball in the back hallway of the con hotel. 

Keep the faith.  You are not alone.

Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Good Luck!!

I'm fairly sure that things will go well. It's just a lot to do and still keep the house together. As far as planning goes, I have lots to do for back to school and less to do for AAC.

Yup. I'm right there with a project for school actually. Yes . . . I'm planning next year already. Blech.

I like your idea. Let's get some rum & discuss.
