A neighbor once told me, while I was struggling with a newborn and trying to be all things to all people, that I needed to remember to put the big things first: the baby, my family. House cleaning and people outside that small circle could just fit in around the edges, if there was any space, and if not, I shouldn't beat myself up about it. For an overachiever like myself, it was an amazing epiphany. I wish you a wonderful Icing Year. I think you're very wise to do this. :-)
