I'm not a fan of overscheduling myself. Definitely not one of those people who is happiest when she's going a thousand miles a minute. I'm usually reminded of this, though, when I'm feeling very overscheduled. As in, currently. Makes me want to crawl in bed and watch a movie.
7th grade teachers aren't as hard-core as I feared. I'm even receiving several e-mails a week from a few teachers giving updates on what they're covering in class and what is due when. Hallelujah.
Buying an alarm clock for said 7th grader was a great decision. He's up on his own and in the shower without any interference from me. I'm usually awake anyway but it's still a good thing.
I've never known as much about kitchen appliances as I do right now. I never walked into anyone's kitchen and thought, "Love that duel fuel range & oven combo! Check out that 48" cooktop. And the french door refrigerator with auto-shelves and dual evaporators is fabulous!" It's a little bit ridiculous. We're making more educated purchases now, though, that's for sure.
Packing up a house is slightly overwhelming. Just sitting here thinking about packing up a house is overwhelming. Bed. Movie.
I'm a huge fan of having a preschooler at home. And she's a big fan of having me all to herself.

This is the main reasons I hate the start of school--I feel overscheduled. I like your idea of crawling in bed and watching a movie. I need to remember this in January when I start feeling like, "Wow, SIX more months of this?!"
I'm glad 7th grade isn't so bad. That is awesome.
Packing is probably the most overwhelming thing I ever do/have done. I HATE it. Oh, do I hate moving. I wish I were close enough to come over and help for an afternoon. :)
Just thinking about new kitchen appliances makes me giddy! I AM the girl that walks into someone's kitchen and says, "sweet duel fuel range/oven combo!" But that's me.
You know if you weren't in the middle of moving, 7th grade would be much more challenging. I think you are being watched out for...
Let me know when you need my hubby's strong triceps and his super big trailer...and I have no upper body strength like he does but I can make some mean moving treats!
Hang in there!
Hang in there Misty! I know how it is to face the daunting task of moving...Don't worry it will be over eventually. Good luck!
