Well, it is June 15th and I did not meet my summer to do list goals. I wanted to be done with all the house cleaning, reorganizing and resetting for a new year by today so I could actually enjoy my summertime. Summer countdown is on already and I am NOT ready!

Relax. Catch up on self care. It’s summer! 😉 If you accomplish 1-2 things on your list, it’s a productive day in my book. Accept everything doesn’t have to get done on a timeline since you may be prioritizing your self care first. The work really never ends and will always be there. We are never really done!

Don't push yourself too hard! Just organize your tasks and put yourself on a schedule that's not going to stress you out. Not all things have to be done right away. I often feel like I'm fighting the clock and the calendar, and at times I just have to accept that there are only so many hours in the day, and I need some time to relax or do something enjoyable and not obsess over work.

I got COVID first week of summer. That turned into bronchitis that I am just now over and last week my 6 year old had his tonsils out and it has been a rough recovery. I need a vacation from this summer!

It is surprising how swiftly the summer goes by. Every time I think I'm gonna have some free time, something always comes up.

I know! I have 4 weeks left and I have not swam once or done a single thing for myself yet.

I thought I was the only one that felt this way. I will follow some of the advice given. Have a great day everyone.

C&F question: any attorneys here with a DUI conviction on your record? If so, did you have any issues clearing Character & Fitness in a new jurisdiction?

DUI occurred nearly two years ago as a senior associate in state X with no corresponding discipline in state X; however, now trying to get admitted into state Y...

Obviously, this is an extremely regrettable event, and will make that clear to C&F, along with post-DUI progress.

Curious if anyone else here went through something similar.
