... when they sang "Somebody save me!"
That's how I've felt over the last two days--like I needed someone to save me from the insanity that surrounds this last week of school. If I had made a "to do" list yesterday, it would have looked a little something like this:
Now I'm choosing to do the same. This week will undoubtedly continue to be stressful, but I can choose how I respond to the stress. I may have a zillion things to do this week, but I can be joyful while I do them, and I don't need to panic when things happen that are beyond my control. Before I know it, this week will be over, and it will be Christmas!
That's how I've felt over the last two days--like I needed someone to save me from the insanity that surrounds this last week of school. If I had made a "to do" list yesterday, it would have looked a little something like this:
- write ESL final
- do powerpoint for Awana Christmas program
- enter grades
- proof/edit yearbook pages
- read Saving Cicadas (my book review blogger book--I really want to finish it because they now have a book available that I'd love to read--I can't remember the name, but it has to do with Lost!)
- practice Singing Christmas Tree music
- attend Awana Christmas program
- practice Festival of Lessons & Carols music (this practice will be with the conductor--and he's going to be able to tell that I don't know my music at all!)
- meet with speech kids
- figure out what StuCo is doing for Christmas
- clean my apartment
- go to Festival practice (all day Friday)
- go to the last four SCT concerts
- call the chiropractor
- submit 16 yearbook pages (due next Wed!)
Now I'm choosing to do the same. This week will undoubtedly continue to be stressful, but I can choose how I respond to the stress.
