Balance. And better weather. Summer needs to slow down and cooperate!

My need to do things is running hard up against my desire to be slothful. I don't know if it's a response to too much going on, too much to do, or if I'm just that dang tired-- but lately, my balance is off. Well, what do I mean, lately? It's off a lot. And I'm going to actively work on establishing balance. 

One thing I truly have to do is determine what needs to be done versus what I'd like to see accomplished-- and choose wisely. I need to make sure there's time to mentally rest, physically rest, and also time to be busy and productive on the practical level. I feel like a drop of water on a hot griddle. 

I want to read. And write. And sit in the sun-- maybe today? We'll see. The weather has not cooperated in days. 

It has been a very long time since I've been able to set my own pace, and, given the way this summer's gone a little sideways, I need to stop reacting, and be a lot more proactive. Proactive in that I will make some "me" time, and not worry so much, if I can manage that.

There's two months until students and I co-exist in 201. I should embrace it.

Have a good day,
