struggling with the lack of distraction

I do a lot of complaining about how hard it is to work because the kids are always here with me. Today I needed to do some intensely focused work and get it done quickly before we leave on a trip. So I didn’t bring any kids in with me.
And guess what….
I can’t […]

calling the shots

and not always liking it so much.
I was raised on the idea of letting the boys win. It’s not worth wounding their pride over you know?
I’ve also lived most of my married life that way. And it worked well for us. He was spoiled, I was spoiled. On the […]

136% full

That’s what my to-do list says. (Time-To rocks BTW) My day is 136% full. That’s just with shop stuff. I don’t even have the “mom” stuff in there. There is a little bit of “teacher” stuff. Hmm.. wonder if possibly I have too many personalities?

trudging through

One of my big work projects is catching up on bank recs. I am working on last months. That’s not too big of a deal. However, I do need to go back through the last 4 months and make sure I have everything moved out of prepaid expenses and into the correct […]

believing for a miracle

This is related to the whole procrastination ordeal, but I promise I’m not just avoiding work. This post is something God has been nudging at me to do.
We are at a crossroads with our business. Our lease will be up in 6 weeks. We have to buy the place or […]

a procrastinator

Big time. Right now I am swamped. When I get that way it’s like my brain short circuits and I don’t know where to start. So I just wander around bumping into things. You may have noticed my plethera of posts yesterday. (Of course finding the […]
