Oct. 26th, 2010 03:49 pmThe boundaries of my life are currently marked out by piles of paper as yet unsorted/unmarked, and I really doubt I'm going to have time to take any time off this half term. Which is somewhat problematic since I've already promised to help my little sis with uni applications tomorrow and I'm supposed to be going to Cardiff on Saturday. Er...
Obviously am doin it rong somewhere. I just... it feels unjust that I am in this position because I work so hard all the time, y'know? I'm at work at least ten hours a day and I generally do more when I get home, so how can I still be this far behind myself? Doin it rong, would appreciate advice on how to do it rite...
Inches away from sobbing heapdom. God I want a hug.

Date: 2010-10-26 04:05 pm (UTC)I'm sorry, honey, I know how difficult that kind of stress is for you. (if it helps: that you find that difficult does not make you any less of a fantastic teacher. it means that's going to be the bit of teaching that is hardest for you.) And unfortunately, one of the first big things that helps organisation is calming down - given that you are not magically going to get more time, your two options are 'speed up what you're currently doing' or prioritising the time you currently have better. I think both those are going to happen - as you do it longer, you'll get more practice at the stuff you're doing and be able to do it quicker, and you'll also know better what stuff needs to have time spent on it and what you can rush a bit. In the meantime... er... I've found list-making very useful?
*hugs more*
