Fast track to Insomniac


With books to buy, school issued lap top to pick up, school id to get, and parking pass to figure out. Along with confirming all of those loans, grants, and scholarships. Oh, and navigating campus.
 
Then there is my oldest. Will she have a better year? Will her struggling subjects be a bit easier for her? We spent so much time on them this summer. Will her class mates easy up? Will she at least find one friend that will make her year and years to come a bit better?

How about the middle one. How will those gross and fine motor skills come along for her? Will she at lest give them a try? Can I get her to eat more then 2 bites at lunch? (Seeing as they only get 15 min to eat.) What new ideas can I put in her lunch box to make lunch say "eat me". My sweet slow little eater that you are. She however makes friends with such ease. She already has one in her class this year that was such a good friend last year.

The youngest, wow! Will she do ok at school every day? How will she do being away from home and myself most days, all day? Am I asking to much for her at the age she is?
Then there are all the activities they are involved in. How will I fit in the Christmas play, Chess club, violin lessons, piano lessons, conferences for school, etc....? Oh and let us not forget working on the weekends still.

Of corse all of this comes to you once the sun has set. Racing through your mind and nerves. Keeping you from that beautiful thing called rest. So here I am sleep deprived, nervous, overwhelmed, and stressed.

Ok deep breath and jump right in. Wish me luck and survival.
