Chaos to Order

I know my God is a God of order, and satan is the god of chaos.... somehow it seems we have allowed chaos to take over. I feel helpless and out of control.  As it says in Proverbs (and my blog headline), "many plans are on a man's/woman's mind (my mind), but it is the Lord's plan that will stand".  I desperately need to get back to a place of order!!!


At any given time, I am faced with multiple responsibilities - each giving me a different title.  
MAMA including, but not limited to:
Dance Mom
Cub Scout Mom
Soccer Mom
Football Mom
(and I only have ONE kid!!!)
Business Owner
Child Care Provider
Preschool Teacher
Home School Teacher/Learning Coach
Student
Banker/Financial Manager
All Natural Chef
Chauffeur
Maid
Children's Ministry Assistant
Health & Fitness Coach
Daughter
Granddaughter
Sister
Aunt
Cousin
Niece
PTO Volunteer Coordinator
Gardner/Landscaper 
Party Planner
and I'm sure there is something I'm forgetting.  As you can see, I'm balancing many plates at the same time!  I feel right now that something is about to fall - and needs to fall - for my sanity.
 I am a master at planning, but executing those plans has always been a struggle for me.  With each of these titles, I am faced with a long list of responsibilities - none of which is a light load. Even as I type this, I think of more titles and more responsibilities that I am in charge of.  Being an only parent means I have no one to delegate any of these jobs to.  Something. Must. Give. Maybe a few "somethings."

As it stands now, I don't feel that I am doing any of these jobs to the best of my ability.  So, I'm asking my friends and family for help!!!!!
What tips do y'all have for me to balance everything?
