It's been a nice time with the kids home. Last week, I only got done what was necessary. I have a big event to prepare for this weekend and what I had hoped to get to last week wasn't even touched. I'm feeling the pressure today. My game plan is to work on things as much as I can on Monday and Tuesday. I know that I will be frazzled by Friday.

I hope that the plans come together easily and the the frazzled feeling is kept to a minimum.
