small dose of panic mode

I am freaking out about all the stuff that seems to be coming up so quickly. None of it is a surprise mind you, but it seems to be all happening at the same time. Yes, this happens to me in cycles. Rush, rush, rush..... welcome to life.

Work is out of control busy. It amazes me how much the company has grown - and keeps growing. It is hard for an organization to hire, train and fully integrate people fast enough to keep up with the sales and marketing folks. A GREAT problem to have, but a problem nonetheless.

On the home front - we have 4 sets of company coming over the next 8 weeks. Some staying for a week at a time. So there are little projects to get done. Cleaning, fixing, preparing and taking time off from work to see everyone. One of the visits is for our son's 6th birthday - a party will accompany said birthday. I've got the project plan spinning in my head. I have dates to meet, things to order, screws to tighten, plants to plant..... and if it all doesn't get done - the world will continue to spin, but I may need a glass of wine.

I haven't been to the gym in 4 days - I know it would help my stress level and my attitude. I'm going tonight - come heck or high water. Especially since the class tonight is Yoga. That will help me tremendously. I might lift weights first to alleviate some physical stress. The family can reheat some dinner - or order pizza for all I care. I need to do this part for me.

I just need to remember "this too shall pass". I'm trying to focus on the journey as the fun part.
