One Woman Show

Really wanted to go to Instructor's camp this year. And I was going to try, even if it meant getting there at 9 or 10 PM on Friday. I decided not to because I'm so tired in the evenings. There was no way I could safely make the drive after a busy day, in the dark. 

So glad I did not commit to go. Saw 20 patients in the office while orienting a new employee. One of my patients at the hospital needs to go back to the OR later this AM. If I had signed up for the camp, I would have had to cancel anyway. 

I'm getting away from the perspective that I must do everything now. There will be instructor's camps years in to the future and I will get to go to many in the future. 

Despite my internal drive to do everything perfectly, I'm only human. I can pace myself. I can do everything I desire, just not all at once. I have enough going on for 3 people. In reality I'm only one person. Today, I'll put out this fire at the hospital, finish this week's office work before next week starts and get my housework under control. Tomorrow is for me.....requirements!

For some weird reason....
