Too Much

Have you ever just realized that you have too much on your plate? I realized that this weekend.

Since Halloween is on Sunday this year, more then likely we'll just go to Trunk or Treat on Saturday at the church.

That means I need to get all the costumes done before Saturday by 6 pm. Jake's costume needs to be done by Thursday night. He has a Halloween/Harvest party for school on Friday, and they are the only kids allowed to dress up. I need to do his hat and get some overalls. I also still have two totes to finish, Zoe's Princess Peach dress, and Teage's Toad vest and mushroom hat to get done.

Along with all this, I'm helping out at Jake's school on Friday. Helping with the party and getting the staff their annual chili feed set up.

Not to mention the very messy house and the HUGE pile of laundry to get done.

I just need a day to get the small projects done. Without having to deal with whatever drama the kids are freaking out about. The impossible dream. LOL!

Wish me luck. I just need to take a deep breath and just bit the bullet and get this stuff done. Nothing like putting it off until the last minute to get everything done!

Take a deep breath. Say a prayer. When Steve comes home each night lock yourself in a room and work. Wish I could help. I love you all.

Good Luck! With having to go back to work so soon after Gracie was born, I feel your pain. As much as I would love to sew costumes this year, I decided my sanity was important too. But I still have piles of laundry, a messy house, mounds of work to catch up on after maternity leave, etc. I TOTALLY GET IT. Just breathe. And no one knows what you PLANNED on doing. All they will see is the end result and they will think you're amazing no matter what. So if you have to give up a few things, it's ok!! Sorry about the long comment, I just totally went through this.
