Hello, and goodbye to the 2025 Spring Book Fair! We did it!
I feel like my brain is a lot more clearer and I am ready to refocus on my health goals. There is still plenty going on around here as we plant up our entire garden in the next two weeks, and say goodbye to the school year with various events including my youngest’s preschool graduation.
I am hoping to gain more mental clarity and focus this week by waking up earlier, again. I started sleeping in until the last possible minute these past couple of weeks because my days were exhausting. I would crash immediately when hitting the bed, and sleep in until my kids woke up. That was definitely contributing to my mental fog. I went to bed running, and woke up running, and not in the good-for-you, “workout” kind of way.
While life is still busy, I feel like I have a little more room to breathe. I have decided to step down from my role as PTO secretary after this school year is finished, which is a role I have been in since 2022. This is my oldest daughter’s last year in elementary school and so I want to shed whatever is reasonable from my plate so that I can be more present for it. This is one of those things I will be releasing.
This was an easy decision once I had the time to think and pray about it. I am still going to volunteer with the PTO, but not in such a time-consuming capacity next school year. I thought it would be bittersweet to give that role up, but it isn’t. It feels like good timing as we have a whole new group of parents ready to run!
