What happened to the last week?
It flew by me without me even knowing, I think. One day it was Monday, the next it was Friday or so it seemed.
I was running around like a chicken with its head chopped off. What a gruesome sight that is - and yes, I have seen it. Blech!
Everyday I wanted to get some writing and reading done, but it seemed as if my family and my animals conspired against me, not to mention my own body. I think I walked around in a fog for the majority of the week for some unknown reason. I couldn't seem to think straight and it took me longer than normal just to do mundane tasts.
I plan to do better this week, but will be out of the house 5 out of 5 days - such fun, NOT. I'm a homebody and would rather be home reading, writing or just about anything than have to DO something everyday. As I wait in doctor's and dentists offices, I plan to read, read, read.
Does your week look as busy as mine? How do you handle it?
Ps 91 (NKJV)
3 Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the perilous pestilence.4 He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.5 You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day,6 nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
Most weeks look like that during the school year for me. This year I made a few changes. Wednesdays the kids got to a homeschool program which allows me six hours of writing time. Sundays I dedicate to reading. I'm always trying to add in more hours here and there, but this way--if I can't--I don't stress quite as much because I know I have my Wednesday and Sunday still.
ReplyDeleteOh, six hours of quiet writing time? Heavenly.
ReplyDeleteOur homeschool co-op is 40 minutes away and requires that I be there, so no time to write. It's hard to find an hour to spend on my writing, which is what I need to get into the story.
