Monday, Monday....
Okay....guess weekends aren't conducive to writing blog entries! Family managers apparently don't conduct 'office hours' on the weekend. So noted! That makes sense I guess. Therefore I shouldn't be surprised to find that Monday feels and acts a lot like Monday for anyone who works? You have to figure out how to get back on your mental bike, regain your balance, build up some speed and travel down the road of the week. Perhaps it's like teachers experience every Monday doing at least a brief review of.... 'this is how this works, accept your fate and comply!' Oooo! That took an unexpected turn on the internal monitor...I'm sure that's not the teacher I should be channeling at ALL! Constantly reframing, retooling and trying to have someone get a handle on the internal audio/visual equipment!!
By the way, speaking of 'school', I realize that I'm sort of butting my head up against a wall by trying to completely get this family manager thing up off the ground during summer vacation? I think I'm going to reframe that in to doing research to prepare for a more productive launch to the new school year! Routines and policy establishment in the midst of summer vacation is pretty suicidal it might seem. However, school and the return to routines is looming ahead with every subsequent shopping trip we make to cover sports supplies, school supplies, clothing needs, etc.! I must be careful not to develop a IGAS syndrome: 'I've Got All... *fill in appropriate time increment here...morning, afternoon, day, week, month, summer or other appropriate season* and then find myself sitting a month on the other side of that torturous 'first day of school' picture that we subject our sons to, under the crush of football season saying...WHAT HAPPENED to my plan? Did anyone see that speeding truck?
Ahhh, a bright, shiny, new beginning...a new school year... full of optimism, hope and promise of all the things you've always wanted to fix about your schedule and teach your child about responsibility...just like an immaculate Big Chief Tablet and a fat, newly sharpened pencil!
This could be the year!! Ooops!! Reframer on call...this WILL be the year!
