The next two weeks are going to be crazy

I have a weekend to study for my last exam on Monday. I hope to do well to make the following week less stressful as I have two small tests a week later followed by my final exam on Friday. During that time outside of school I'll need to attend two school functions for my kids as well as get ready for the Davis Double on May 15Th.
So aside from school there is a great deal going on.

Sometimes I feel overwhelmed by things but I've been managing (barely). I get little sleep some nights and than have to cope with my daily issues on an empty tank. I'm not sure if those around me realize how hard this is for me and why I sometimes act out a bit or put them on the back burner. It's not because I no longer care about them it's because I have too much on my plate and daily I find myself balancing it while juggling three balls with the other hand.

I know it will be worth it. That is why I have not thrown in the towel and walked away. Others in my class have. Many of them seamed to have their acts together and honestly some probably had better skills than I. I don't know how I'm doing this but I am. It's like the little engine. Each week I feel a bit better, more and more prepared and the juggling seems to get done. Somehow some way the plate doesn't fall and the balls never hit he ground.

Hopefully the next two weeks will be the same and in the end when the semester is over I can take a breath and for a short time relax. I think I've earned that right. I think I need a breather so I can prepare for the home stretch. Nursing school is nearly over, yahoo.
