Trying to Return to "Normal"

Lots of things have been "slid around" and shifted and pushed aside the last four weeks for me to try to help my wife as best as I could.  With things returning to some semblance of "normal" I need to try to wrangle back into place all the things I have been supposed to be doing and may have been doing to some degree, but am lagging in where I SHOULD BE regarding work, regarding home tasks, regarding most everything in normal day-to-day events.  

So, I am trying to rustle these things back into place.  It is tiring to do, and I feel the weight of my needing to do these things.  I stayed up until around 2am last night working on research related items for my research students who are gearing up for a big meeting several of them will be presenting at at the end of the month.  

Today, I am hoping to get my lectures back into shape so I can be on the normal trajectory by the end of the week.  I am trying to write up exams to get them to the secretary for production by graphics in the next day or so.  

Unfortunately, we have a public concert tonight, and while I normally enjoy such things, it is at the moment, just a task to complete so I can check it of my very long list of things I need to do.

I am hoping my wife's physical therapy goes well, and that they encourage her to continue swimming with me..... if that is recommended, I am hoping to squeeze in some swimming with my wife before heading to the concert.
