I love reading my friends posts and yet, I fill my time up with “stuff” that I rarely sit and write anything. I guess I figure “who cares”? I have to admit, I have been pretty stressed out recently with way too many committments right now and not getting organized early enough. Now, I feel like I’m down to the wire and running out of time. Why do people procrastinate? Is it because we think we work better under pressure? Not me. I had a melt down this weekend because of my procrastination. And so a friend said to me, actually more than one friend has said that I should prioritize my life…..get rid of some of the committments I have. Where would I begin? Do I tell my Red Hat Ladies that I go out to dinner with once a month that I don’t have time for them? What about my monthly dinner out with Frankie and Alice? Then there is church. I have several committments that involve music in the church. I hate to give up that part of my life because I feel closest to God when I’m singing. I know…..I just need to quit my job. That’s the one committment that I enjoy the least and takes up 40 hours a week out of my life. Well dear friends, I do plan to retire at the end of 2012 and it will be here before you know it.
My weekend has been filled up with family. Helped Derrick and wife, Beth move to a new apartment. Well, lets say I was there, I don’t know how much help I was. Aimee, Mike and girls were here Saturday overnight. We went to the beach and KC went swimming for the first time ever! He was so cute and with his new hair cut he was “wash and dry”.
Well, I guess I’ll sign off for now. I’m multi tasking and not doing very well. I’m on skype with two friends, watching my plurk.com and trying to do this. So until next time…..God bless your day!
Ann, I hear you on the over extended issue. I will miss you at knitting, but will be thankful for the times I see you!!
