Overworked...

I am feeling overwhelmed in my life this week. I don't know what I was thinking, but assumed that life post-triathlon would be a little less stressful. Man, was I ever wrong.

• Grandmother died last Saturday. Calling hour, funeral and festivities all day yesterday.
• Kindergarden trip to zoo. My daughter, her friend and the worst two behaved boys in her class were mine from 9:30 - 2:00 p.m. I could tell the teacher knew it was a challenge. Everytime our paths crossed..... "Is everyone listening?" "Are the girls doing OK?" She seemed to be seeking us out to make sure that I hadn't "accidentially" left them at the Chimp Expo...
• Tomorrow I get to Lifeguard for 2 hours, pick up my daughter and her friend for the afternoon. Pick up my other daughter at school and bring her to skating; bring everyone home for dinner and head back out for a shift at the library from 6-9 p.m. hoping that DH can make it home on time (please).
• Friday is FIELD DAY and another opportunity to volunteer.
• Saturday is training with my sisters that I desperately want to bag on, and
• Sunday I will be lifeguarding at a triathlon and celebrating Father's Day with my kids and DH.

How about a little break?!... Summer vacation starts next Thursday at NOON.... OMG... Minor meltdown... I have told myself for the last month that I would take a morning (the whole 2.25 hours of half-day kindergarden) and get a pedicure. It would be my mini-pampering session before the kids were out... Little did I know that the maid had lost her way, there is no food in the house and the laundry is piling up. Geez, it's tough to find good help these days..... What to do?
