I feel that I have too many responsibilites at work being a co-chair for a committee, guiding a new teacher, dealing with my aide issues, report cards, ieps, parent letters and so forth.

Then there is home...I must have the house clean. I cant relax when there is clutter.

I am trying to make time for myself and time with my husband. Trying not to let everyday responsibilities take away the opportunities to enjoy life.

I'm type A as well. We play a constant balancing act trying to make sure that we tend to everything else, and still tend to ourselves, as well.
