Overwhelmed. If you have seen me in the last few weeks, this is how I have been describing myself. Nothing fancy. Nothing exciting. Just plain overwhelmed. I have been on an emotional roller coaster from anxious to ecstatic to sad to exhausted to pleased to stressed. And I feel like I feel all of these at once most of the time! So me today = OVERWHELMED! I love October and the fall. I love the crisp air, the bonfires, the football, the leaves changing, the pumpkin candles, my birthday! But this fall, I have just feeling overwhelmed with our move, waiting to finally to hear that we can go meet our son, and busy season in my business. Whew! It is just a lot! I am trying to embrace the chaos that is our life, and remind myself that this too shall pass.
So from now until Thanksgiving, I have many, many family and senior sessions, a few weddings left, and a couple of trips planned (and hopefully a trip to Korea thrown in the mix!). So if you see me, I will still have my smile, I will still be positive that we will be getting my baby SOON, and I will be telling myself that this period of overwhelming life, is just that. A period in my life. Not a constant. And just to hang in there.
Hang in there, friends, hang in there!
