Today we met with Cole's high school counselor to start the process for college applications, scholarships, ACT, AP, NCAA and on and on. I left his office with a major anxiety attack (worse than normal for this habitual worrier)! Why would this stress me, you ask? Isn't it Cole's job to put in all his applications? Yes, of course it is, but this Mom knows the fullness of his schedule. I know his Dad and I will have to do the majority of the typing. Not to mention, we are much faster typers! Those who know I graduated in December with my Bachelor's would be surprised to discover that I began my Master's right after so we now have two parents working full-time, two parents working on Master's degrees full-time, three kids with lacrosse, music lessons, and homework, a house and three dogs who need care. That is why I am having anxiety!
This too shall pass! I just need a day to have anxiety, worry about getting it all done and by tomorrow I will have a plan in place to accomplish it all. In the meantime, stay out of my way!
T, as one worrier to another (I learned from the best LOL), just get through today. You're too strong & capable of a person for the stress to last too long...you always get these kinds of things done (and in plenty of time). That's why you are such a great mom! Love, Jules
