Getting life back in order July 2, 2008
Posted by spacemom in : Current Affairs , add a commentThere was the day in Marseille when all went wrong. The alarm wet off, but the sound was muted. We missed the two important talks I wanted to see. We caught a ferry on time, but forgot to load the camera with a compact flash. I forgot to reload on sun lotion after lunch and fried.
But, I was calm. I even climbed rocky cliffs with sandals during all of this.
Now that I am back home, the stress is seeping in. I need the world to slow. I need the three hour dinners where someone else did laundry and dishes. I need to have a chauffer for the girls, my work to fix itself and friendships to not be on the rocks.
But that is a fantasy. So in the mean time, I will get back to work and do what I can…when I can…and try to relax my shoulders more often.
