Meanwhile, we also need to figure out how things are going to work here while I'm gone. My dad taxi services are usually the most appreciated when the family has to figure out how to get places without them. In that same vein, I need to plan when I will mow again so that I don't come back to a jungle (especially in the dog yard).
Still, even though this tightening schedule is a harbinger for the end of this summer break, I'm not allowing it to stress me out. I will plan as best as I can (which is not necessarily saying a lot), but I will let things fall as deemed by a plan greater than mine. I don't want to lose out on enjoying the present moment by worrying about situations that are beyond my control.
