Are You Overworked and Overwhelmed? Tips for Calming the Chaos. That’s the subject line of an email I received this week. It came complete with the option to save $122 on The Complete Organizational Toolkit, The Complete Stress Management Toolkit and The Complete Productivity Toolkit. Ooh baby…it struck a chord. I immediately forwarded it to my staff with a note – Don’t cha just want me to order up a bunch of these? Seething sarcasm, huh. My favorite response was a reply with only a picture of a glass and a bottle of Jack Daniels. I hired well.But seriously folks, I’m sure there’s merit in these learning tools. Well, certainly money for the person selling them. Clearly my reaction was jaded by a month of intense business and personal travel combined with the back to school regime. This MomSpit Mama was having a meltdown. Fortunately, I decided to let black humor win over the urge to throw my laptop off the top of our office building.
Note to self: Chant ohm while folding laundry. Better yet…take the dog for a walk, fully armed with dried liver treats in one pocket and a bottle of MomSpit in the other. Marvel at the playful joy exuded by a pup chasing a squirrel. Repeat as necessary.
