This post is entirely about me and how my decisions and choices cause an inordinate amount of stress in my life.  As I reflect on the rest of the summer I can't decide whether to bury my head, scream, cry, or all of the above.

Here's the big things we are looking at for the rest of the summer:

Girls TRAC Camp - I am volunteering.  Still don't have respite for either boy.  Lots of feelers out, but no official respite.  I'm in charge of activity centers so I need to get three days worth of crafts together for 40 teenage girls.

Boys TRAC Camp - I am volunteering.  Younger Boy is attending.  Middle Boy would be attending if he wasn't on electronic monitor.  I don't have respite for him.  Haven't even really tried looking yet.  I'm in charge of activity centers so I need to get three days worth of crafts together for 40 teenage boys.

Moving - We close on the new house on July 27.  Most likely we are moving on July 28.  Has anyone ever tried moving without packing?

Selling the House - No lookers yet.  I'm not in a panic...don't even have time to think about it.

Middle Boy's Birthday - Turns 15.

Grandpa's Surgery - It's a follow-up to the first hospital adventure, but stressful just the same.

All of this actually occurs before the end of July.

Now...coming in from LEFT FIELD...I may be spending 8 days in Majuro, Marshall Islands, for work during this same timeframe.

On top of this I have a full-time job.  Plus my boys are a bit more needy than the average boys.  They both do 4 hours of therapy each week and Younger Boy plays baseball.

Pray for wisdom and discernment.  Pray for energy and perseverance.  Pray for sanity and the ability to say no.  Just pray for me!!
