How Can I Balance Work and Family Life?

[chefkristin]

Hi all!

Long time no talk. I have been crazy busy with work and dealing with my son.
I officially went inactive at the end of March and I have to say it has totally been the right decision for me. I miss being on here all the time but I know your all here if I want to drop in. I was going to try another business but decided not to and I am so happy. I was so stressed for a long time. My full time job has been an absolute blessing and I love it so much! It is so nice to work somewhere and not be stressed all the time. My husband also has a job that he really likes.
We are going in the right direction.

We are however taking my 5 year old son Ethan to see his pediatrician to talk about our next step with him. We went through some testing with his teacher called the Conner's Scale. It looks like we may be dealing with ADHD. That will be May 1st. Please pray that everything turns out ok no matter how things go.

I am so happy that the nicer weather is on the way. I miss you all and hope that all your businesses are thriving. I will miss you at Wave 1.

Talk to you soon.

Thanks for checking in with all of us! Good luck with your son. I'm sure it's stressful, but you're doing the right thing getting it all checked out. In my "former life" I worked A LOT with kids with ADHD and all kinds of psychiatric diagnoses so I know how stressful it can be. Good luck with everything!

Glad you stopped in - don't make yourself a stranger - remember it is ok to take a break and re-focus your life - you can always come here and even come back to PC!!

Good luck with your son - I know about the conners reports etc, my middle guy had ADD - he has since outgrown it - so don't become discouraged!!
