Thinking about back to school....

Rob is taking the girls camping this weekend to El Capitan. I will be here, taking care of the pets, and my PTa mom responsibilities began...I have to put together the entire elementary school newspaper for publication by Friday of next week. Also, I am team mom for Olivia's soccer team and need to get the banner ordered, snack schedule nailed out, patches ordered....also, I promised a friend I would make a wood box example for her blog as part of her design team. Samantha has her kindergarten "meet and greet' in the morning. I wish I could stop over-committing myself, and just breathe, in the moment. Just enjoy the present...am trying to "go gently", as Susannah has taught me.
We had to resue Rob from the ER this morning. He also has overworked himself. So much so that his 5AM workout caused his bloodpressure to plummet and he passed out. He had an IVdrip for 4 hours this am. The girls and I experienced the Long Beach Emergency Room-super interesting. Heart attacks, kidneys stones, drug OD's all around. I guess I am happy in my quiet bubble of NB.
I think we all need to realize that relaxing and meditation are equally as important as goals and financial success. It has certainly become my goal over the last few months, to try to be more awake in the moment and do what pleases my soul.
I think Rob finally sees the light. This made him realize that he should stop saying "yes" so often, as well.
Ahard thing to do, for us both.
