Frazzled

We could use some prayer going into this week, just with scheduling and general business.  The fundraising is going well, thanks to some generous support from aunties.  Thanks Kate, Danna, and Dianne!  We do need some more to make this month's payment though, and I carefully scheduled the garage sale around G's off week in softball.  Come to find out I read the schedule wrong and she DOES have a game, plus practice, plus she and I are doing a night camp every night this week.  I'm feeling terribly stressed about getting the stuff for the sale ready in time, and being able to run the sale while getting her to softball.  I don't really have the luxury of waiting to do it because the payment is due before our next available sale date, and also I want to get this stuff out of our house since multiple people have been so generous about donating sale items.

I just feel very frazzled.  And she's got an acting class next week and she needs to write a monologue for it and I feel unclear on the directives and I want her to be prepared.  I'm having trouble though with knowing how much to step in and help, and how much to step back and let her take ownership.  She is only almost nine, after all, and I don't want her lack of experience to penalize her, but I don't want it to look like momma did it all.

Ack.  Prayer please.  Peace, scheduling help, delegating tasks, a successful sale... and a softball win would be good too.  Her poor team has lost every game this season and they're getting mighty discouraged.
