By this point in the fall, I've found my groove (mostly). I've gone from feeling like a "hot mess" a majority of the time when September started to maybe 20% of the time now, so I'm calling that a win! The puzzle pieces are falling into place, so to speak. Practice times and game schedules are locked in, carpools are arranged, and I'm adjusting to the longer work commute (way more traffic this time of year).

Life is coming at you fast in June. Graduations, sports tournaments, end-of-year school events, and the transition into summer…your calendar is full and your bandwidth is not. And somewhere in the middle of all of that, you're still trying to eat well but you’re “winging it”. You run out the door with a piece of toast if you're lucky.
