(I just noticed that the last time I posted was exactly a year ago and my post was on the same theme but this year already feels like a success. Whoot!)

Usually I find that September attacks me out of nowhere but things feel a bit more manageable this year.

That’s partially because I was careful to minimize my extra commitments throughout August this year but it’s also because I have already done some planning for fall.

Doing advance planning might be automatic for you but I have to put in a lot of effort to convince my ADHD brain that a) there is any time besides right now and b) that is is possible to plan for that time.

So I don’t have EVERYTHINg planned but I do have a few anchor activities in place and that’s helping the fall seem more doable.

But no matter why or how it happened, I’m enjoying the feeling of being at ease on September 1.
