It has been nice and quiet today. I am enjoying the peace instead of feeling lonely My kids will be home in a few hours.

Why are you under so much stress?

Lots of changes will be happening this year. Lots of it uncharted territory for me so I am navigating and trying to figure out my next steps. My youngest is going to school full time 1st grade the end of Aug. So it is time to try and ditch the night job and go back to my career full time but I haven't done it in very long time so having to navigate the job search, interview, professional scene again. Then just trying to figure out finances in the meantime as I have had unexpected changes and bills has been stressful.

Then my athletic kid got asked to play in a big tournament for baseball but that will involve a lot of traveling in 3 wks to another state. So need a week off from work, figuring out scheduling for my soon to be 1st graders therapies and ESY(extended school year) around all this.

It sounds very stressful, I don’t know how I’d navigate the job search at this point in my life. Stressing probably.

I hope relief comes soon or at least getting used to the level of stress

Oh, I didn't mention in Feb we found out my 7yr old is legally blind in his right eye and not much better in his left. So I have been dealing with that shell shock too.
