enielHave decided to let go of the stress of doign everything during the week and instead try to plan the next three days in a more relaxed manner so that I can do all that I want to do. It does mean working over the weekend, but I suppose that's better than worrying myself to the bone, or creating the feeling that I'm inadequate because I can't juggle everything.
Stuck with violin again today, and started wondering what I wanted to do about exercising. Not sure how I want to make sure I have my work/day/play balance figured out yet. I suppose hoping to have everything figured out at the end of week 1 was also ridiculous. Trying to be kinder to myself.
C's questions about when the grandparents are the most difficult to answer right now. "I don't know" is a hard concept for her to grasp, although I'm doing my best to stay positive and remind her that there are a lot of great things we have to look forward to (like April Fool's Day, Easter, etc.). Bless her, she's coping as well as she can, and I'm so grateful that FaceTime and WhatsApp are A Thing.
Got the Playmobil toys out this afternoon while S was napping and C played for a couple of hours while I pottered around, cleaning the kitchen and bathroom (which made me feel less twitchy, with four of us in the house all the time, things are getting dirtier more quickly) and dropping in on her game now and then. It's good to remember that there are toys that they really enjoy that I can rotate in and out to ensure they're still fresh and new, as well as a few that were given to us a few weeks ago that they haven't even seen yet.
