During the next 12 weeks, I have a son graduating from high school, the anticipated birth of my first grandchild, the opening of a Community Services Building that I am in charge of - yikes! These, in addition to all that comes with spring and gardening - yep, I am scrunched!
So, what do I do when I am being squeezed from all ends? Here are a few of my coping techniques:
1. Walks - I take time to get outside and power walk to burn off the feeling of being overwhelmed.
2. Mint Tea - I make and drink lots of it - it is very soothing.
3. Laugh - I take time to find the "funny" in this craziness, and laugh when I find it.
4. Love - I make a point of letting those around me know that in spite of the fact I am busy - I am thinking of them and love them very much.
5. Pray - over and over and over...
6. Gratitude - I acknowledge how blessed I am to have such a rich and full life!
What do you do when you feel "scrunched"??
