O is for Overwhelmed

What do you do when you feel overwhelmed?  How do you balance work/home/self/others?

Tomorrow will be more interesting, I promise.  Today I want to solicit your thoughts on being Overwhelmed.  

Personally, I find I'm more likely to get overwhelmed when I'm not taking care of myself.  Eating well and getting enough sleep go a long way toward making me feel like I can handle what the day has to throw at me.  How about you?

  1. For me, if I take on too much and start feeling overwhelmed, I have to take a break, make a list of all the things I "have to do" then prioritize and maybe even knock some things off. I've had to learn (no scratch that...) I'm still learning that it's ok to say no to some things. My dad likes to remind me I'm not part of the Trinity :)
    Praying you feel less overwhelmed soon!
