If Only the Circus Were in Town

spinning-platesI have often referred to myself as the plate spinner at the circus and my belief that if I can keep all the plates spinning then everything would be OK.  Well, not to long ago I realized that the plates were falling around me…..now I have reached a point where duck and cover seems the smart thing to do!  I have tried everything I know to keep the plates spinning; I used nervous energy, my obsessive/compulsive tedencies, sleep deprivation, multi-tasking (not something I have mastered yet) and even my anxiety.  But still the plates keep falling down, I even tried asking for help-a last resort for me, but still no success.  I think it’s time to call in the big guns-I need the professional plate spinner from the circus!  Now, if only the circus were in town!!!
