Am I overwhelmed? Nah, not yet, but the feeling is approaching, if that makes sense.
I've prayed about this and I am engaged in a process to reposition myself, yes. Things are HAPPENING and I suppose it is only natural to feel like it is all more than I can handle, no?
I am fond of saying I have the utmost confidence in my students, so I should have that same confidence in myself. So this really isn't worry, rather it is stress LOL
For the first time in a LONG time, I'm busy with projects, people, activities where I find fulfillment. I said to myself the other day, it's almost like life was when I was in DC....
- I'm on the Advisory Committee of my HOA
- I've joined my Community Association
- I've been matched with a Little
- I've been nominated for President of the network of my peers at work. This is state, regional, and potentially national face time, folks.
- I'm the publicity chair for a love & relationships workshop series (I know, the irony slays me too!)
- Then there's the MEAC Picnic, the National Black Arts Festival, the Social Butterflies and the Daughters of Destiny Retreat.....
The 5 Bold Steps and the classes I've been taking this winter quarter have shaped this journey, and I'm making progress on every front. The stress comes from having not figured out how this will all work, how I will succeed at all of this.....but FAITH, but GOD!
The lazy procrastinator in me is going to have to take vacation, and I'm going to have to let go of FB LOL Spring is always the most hectic time of the year professionally, and now, it seems personally, and for the first time in a long time, it is not just busy for me, but busy for others, for good and it is rewarding. Even if I'm slightly stressed out, it's the action and activity that I needed in my world. I've recently learned that Acts of Service is my secondary love language, and it is apparent that my love tank in this regard shall be full.
So can I exhale and take a drink and send the procrastinator on vacation now? LOL

Keep fighting the good fight!!!
