It seems like this is the busiest time of the year. Banquets, County Track Meets, Choir/Band Concerts, Drama Production, Field Day, Field Trips, etc. Oh, and don't forget Graduation! How do you cope with all the events and scattered feelings that are like the string that ties the entire year together?

I think it's just gotten more manageable throughout the years. I'm going on my 10th year doing this job so I already know a lot about what to expect as the year is closing out. I think over time you just find ways to make life easier for yourself, I can't say I've consciously gone out of my way to "cope" with all of the events.

You don’t have to attend everything. Just saying. 🤪

One day at a time. And remember that there is an end!

Stay calm. Be the rock while everyone else swirls around.

And pick and choose events; don’t let the events choose you.

I agree with you. This definitely is the busiest time of year and its absolute insanity. I do the best I can and just take things day by day so a not to get too stressed out.

Has anyone else talked to a doctor about stress while trying to conceive? I’ve been having a really hard time wanting a baby for the way my husband and I have been arguing or talking to each other. I think we should go to counseling. I know I love him and I know he loves me- there’s just so much animosity so much anxiety around discussions. Do you think our anxiety or tension is because we have not been able to conceive?

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
