Stressed. Again

It's only January 5 and I'm stressing for the year already.  My workload is just about laughable.  I have a boss that thinks I can work 15 hours a day - at least one would think so with the amount of work she has laid on my doorstep.  I know one of my resolutions is to try and schedule enough time in the day to do it all.  Well, let me tell you - I'm not very good at it yet.  Or maybe I'm just not good at not thinking about work all the time.  I can't figure out why I get so worried.  What is the worst case scenerio that could happen?  She could fire me.  But she needs me more than I need her at the moment so that is not likely to happen.  Ok - I miss a deadline or two in getting the work done - then she gets mad and chews me out.  But I've never missed a deadline because I always work, work, work to make sure I don't.   So, I do what I do every year - I just keep working and eventually it passes.  I just really wish I could find some other work that paid well, but that I really enjoyed doing.  Oh, and I need to stay at home to do it as I have all these kiddos to take care of too.

On a positive note - I did actually schedule 3 meals this week - scheduling is not really my strong suit, at least not in the meal department.  I am using my planner daily - at this point it's mostly to write down what I've already done but I'm confident that over time I may actually write something down that is to happen in the future!
