COT: I’ve found myself under more stress between work, school, and home life since kids returned to school; I got in a “funk” the last week and worked on changing my perspective of how I thought everything should go, and started to change my expectations. I can’t control everything and worrying over the things I can’t change will not help anyone. Some fun reminders I want to share: “wake up with determination and go to bed with satisfaction” “the body achieves what the mind believes”
