As the new year creeps closer, I have been thinking more about my goals and New Year's Resolutions in general. I also traveled across the country with my family last week. I noticed something while on that trip. Sometimes my son will do something not exactly the way I want him to (I know this is a huge shock to anyone who has met a 3-year-old). Sometimes my husband does something a different way than I will do it. You know what though? It's okay. I can deal with these situations without freaking out. I just haven't been. I've been Queen Freak Out, and my subjects are starting to get tired of it.
Thus, my resolution for 2011 is to take a chill pill. Instead of freaking out over the little things, just relaxing and enjoying my life and my family. I've done a good job of this over the past couple days, but we'll see how things go once I go back to work next week. Speaking of work, there are a lot of instances at work where I need to dial back the anxiety. Hopefully, this will not just affect my family life, but my professional life also.
It may sound easy, but it is not going to be.
