September Looks Manageable at First

Hey There,

September always looks manageable at first.

A few things on the calendar.

A couple of appointments.

Maybe a project or two that needs attention.

Nothing that seems like too much.

Then a week goes by. Something gets added on Tuesday. Another thing on Thursday. A reminder gets written down for next week.

The school event.

The work deadline.

The errand we forgot about until now.

Before long, the calendar tells a different story than the one it told at the beginning of the month.

Many of us know this rhythm. The calendar fills up before we’ve even noticed.

And somehow, we're already talking about plans for the fall while still wondering where summer went.

I'm Giving Myself Permission. Join Me?

I'm giving myself permission to stop expecting September to feel like a fresh blank page.

A few things are already written there.

And that's okay.

Stay Steady, 👣
