The Art of Balance

As I sit here writing this blog 4 days late, I find myself thinking about the art of balance.  Right now we are all balancing jobs, masters courses, internship hours, upcoming interviews, families, and friendships.  How do we make it work?  How do we get through each day making sure that our families know that although we are busy, we love them very much, and that although we are spending time with our families our job still needs to and will get done?  It's a hard lesson in life that I think we are all learning right now and it's important to keep in mind, that when we become administrators, it won't slow down. 
So the question is, where do we find this balance?  I think that this venture towards administration is as much a career move as it is a soul searching journey.  It's important that we find the peace within so that we can constantly be moving forward and maintain the balance.  For me, it's appreciating and taking in the little things, the mundane, every day, take advantage of things.
One of my favorite moments of the week is Saturday morning yoga and grocery shopping.  My husband and I go to yoga at 7:30am, this gives me an hour of no technology, just me and my mind.  After, we go to the grocery store.  It's empty still at 8:30 and I find myself enjoying the quiet calm of getting coffee, walking the aisles, and just talking.  We don't have the distractions of t.v., Facebook, work emails and household tasks, it's just us, walking and talking.
So my question is, what is your balance?  What is it that you do to make sure you get it all done without letting the rocks that are all of our responsibilities fall?
