I feel like I am in one of those right now. It seems like there is so many things going on and I have to of course be perfect and right on for all of it. The hardest thing for me would be to give myself permission to let it go because this year at school it is my second year and my kids are so much smarter than last year. I have only a handful that are below grade level in reading which means I need to step up what they are learning, yet I also need to make sure that the others don't fall through the cracks. But giving myself that permission is exactly what I need to do, so I don't burn out or burn up from the pot. Pressure to perform is also happening at hula. I want to do my best and have the ladies I am dancing with do the same, but there seems to be some road blocks there, which then I put more pressure on myself to be more perfect. I can't do it all...I know I can't. I need to take a break and just breathe. I mean it is only September right?
