I took a survey of how I felt I did at self care and where I could improve and what are my strong points.
I have found that in the afternoons at least I need a fast from Facebook and other social media things as it has just been driving me crazy. I need to remind myself that I've got this. I can do my school work and pass my classes. I can get my bachelor's degree.
One of the analogies that I was reading about in class is that we are juggling balls, some of those balls are glass and others are plastic. These aren't big balls like school or children but they are small and made up of the many little things that make up your life in those areas.
A glass ball might be an assignment that is due but a plastic ball would be creating a web site because your teacher said you could and should though it isn't part of your class curriculum. A glass ball for your kids might be spending quality time with them without distractions and being fully present; and a plastic one, to a point, would be getting school work done for the day.
I am a bit lax to a point on school work getting done. We generally have Fridays off from most school work and I view this day as a catch-up day and we would finish our lessons or whatever we were behind or missing then. There might be a subject that I need to spend more time on and during the week with all the craziness going on there just might not be time to get to that in depth lesson and truly covering it the way that it should be covered.
