Okay - I am feeling very overwhelmed right now. I have 7 shows in January - starting on the 11th. I haven't given any of my hosts their host packets yet. I mail out the invites, and don't have the ones out yet for my show on the 13th or 18th. I was so organized going into the holidays - I mailed out holiday letters w/ recipes etc.... to all of my hosts, and thought this was going to be the best organized start to the year I've ever had. Then, right after Christmas, the whole family (all 3 of us) came down with a horrible flu that is still lingering around, and then on Jan 1st, one of my closest friends passed away from breast cancer. It's not that I'm not motivated, I just seem to be in a stupor, and can't concentrate long enough to get anything done. Laundry has piled up over my head, the decorations are all still up, and I just don't know where to start......... My friends mom just called and asked if I would speak at the funeral, and I said I would (how would I say no?) - so now need to also spend some time prayaing and thinking about what I will say.
I know that "this too shall pass", and that I will get thru this time, but it's all a bit overwhelming right now. So after that long vent - here is my question....What should I do with my hosts that I've now neglected the last 2 weeks? Do I call and explain the situation or would that seem unprofessional and like I'm whining? I know I need to get going on these shows....I'm just having a hard time focusing right now - so any help or advice would be greatly appreciated and valued!
