The life of a full time grad student and mom of three - it takes a village!

Today: Woke up, stretched, washed my face & put on makeup. If I don’t get ready for the day this second it’s a disaster.

Took my probiotic & Vitamin D + K2 (thanks to my nutritionist for getting my health on track!).

Ate breakfast (Kefir and a handful of pumpkin seeds, thanks Period Besties!) with my son.

Took 3rd kid to the bus stop (thanks husband for handling 1 & 2).

Reviewed the school assignments I have due for the fiftieth time because I’m beyond stressed relying on an online portal. I constantly feel like I’m missing something.

Prepared material to review for aprés walk quiz.

Ran out to meet date for said walk - because it’s a gorgeous Fall day, I need fresh air, exercise, and I miss my friends. Complimented myself on completing the social work ethic of self care. Ha!

Texted my teenage daughter “it’s prime leaf-peepin’ season” just to bother her 😆.

Rushed home to take the first online quiz of my second masters degree. School is so different these days! I’m grateful it’s open book as my perimenopause brain fog is also something I didn’t have as a student in my 20s.

Checked portal again because I need to go to a social worker for the anxiety the online portal creates…learning how to be a social worker.

Downed an avocado. Asked Alexa how many grams of protein are in an avocado. She judged me.

Ran to a client for a shoot.

Ran home, grabbed kid 2, turned around, headed to a Bar Mitzvah lesson.

Downed lackluster fish sticks kid 1 made.

Headed to kid 2’s baseball game.

Realized the picture I took for this post had bad lighting. Tried again. The lighting hates me today.

Did not pay attention to game. Worked on client content instead. It was more exciting.

Started reading for my next assignment on my phone.

Drove home still mad at the fish sticks.

Put kids to bed.

Checked the 200 email I missed because of all of the above.

Face planted into my phone falling asleep while saying tomorrow I will go to sleep earlier.

How was your day?
