Overwhelmed!!!

I am sure I am not in this boat by myself, but right now I am so overwhelmed by the state of my house after hurricane evacuation preparations, back to school stuff everywhere in the kitchen, the remnants of getting ready for packing for college all around the house, a huge back load of laundry from pre-hurricane and post-hurricane, in addition to realizing we need to wash ALL of the bedding in our house and fumigate because we think we might have brought home bedbugs from camp or the cabin or a hotel!!! Now I am serious work to do and I am feeling a little frozen by the magnitude of it all.  And of course school for three of our kids starts on Tuesday.  Uggh!  Then we get a notice from the health insurance company that our application was rejected over some missing data in the DEERS system. Thanks.  So my poor husband has been back at the Naval Base trying to get all of this straightened out so we can have health insurance!  And we are still waiting on the job possibility in CA, which we won't hear about until after Labor Day.  I just need another week to myself to regroup.  Yuck!  I am trying to just breathe here.  Breathe.

  1. Keep breathing! Where in California is the job because if you are near us - lot's of sitting problems would be solved! Hope what ever is best for you is what works out! Our oldest son is starting his second year of college - just dropped him off too. Hope your house was left undamaged and your trip was special for you and your daughter.

  2. Oh Yeah - your house sounds much like ours, and we didn't have to contend with Irene. So sorry Meagan - I understand. We are in school (chaos but a tremendous YAY!) and exhausted from the change in schedule.

    You already know what to do, focus on one thing at a time. Perhaps the bed bugs first? The rest will be there as you're able to get to it.
