End of the semester and stressing

1 Reply

So here we have 3 weeks now to complete two book reports. Yesterday we finished the first book. We chose the shortest books in each of the categories and all that. I feel quite sure that there will be other projects to finish up. Oh and she is in choir so there will be performances (at least two that I know of) that she is already freaking out about. How are you guys handling all this? For the long diagnosed can you give us newbies some advice as to how not to ruin the holiday season by cramming all this in? To be honest a huge part of me just wants to half do (insert appropriate word here) theses projects and get through this horrible semester. Btw, we will still be adjusting meds, attending counseling and going through all these other emotions and feelings.

Ideas or thoughts?

We grab a calendar and chart all the pending activities (such as your concerts) and assign daily time to finish the book project. Not elegant, but effective.

Not what you're looking for?
