Balancing Act

The reason I haven't updated in forever is that I am so so incredibly busy.

Talk about having too much on your plate!!! I just went home to Georgia last week for a visit, and when I came back the iron curtain of responsibility descended upon me. I'm going to quickly itemize, just so I can wrap my mind around everything I have to do:


1. Training - obviously. Haven't had time this week. And I'm getting worried...

2. My professional affiliation - Our chapter awards are due this month, and I'm responsible for putting them together. I've spent the bulk of my time this week on these.

3. Fundraising! - Yes, that $5,600 still has to be raised. I've gotten $1505 so far (and THANK YOU to all of you who have donated!!), but I still have to do additional events. My friend Katie and I are currently planning a Silent Art Auction - an intimidatingly large endeavor that, like everything else, takes lots of time.

4. My job - I still have to make a living.

5. My Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) Accreditation - Basically, I have to take a giant test by May 9. Many many hours of studying are a prerequisite for passing this thing.

6. My taxes - I still haven't filed them.


In my 'spare' time, I'm going to discover a way to clone myself so that I can get all of this done.

How do I get myself into these situations?!?

If no one hears from me in a few days, it's because I've locked myself in my apartment and am battling the onslaught of panic attacks.
