A Work in Progress
Sunday afternoon, I'm sitting at work, things have slowed down. Seems like I am still struggling with balance in my life. I work at one thing....like getting my house clean and organized....and then I am not getting my exercise in.....I start having more fun....and then I'm not attending to my home office stuff.....I guess you could say I'm still a work in progress. One of my issues is not wanting to live a regimented life! I tend to rebel against having too much structure! My Mom is one of those women who always did wash on one day, ironing another, dusting and floors on Sat. morning....did certain things like clockwork....I just don't seem to be like that! So....that makes fitting in all the things I want/need to do so difficult! If I could only: wake at 6:30, breakfast at 6:45, work on bill paying/ home office stuff at 7:00, do home organization/cleaning stuff at 7:45, go to the gym at 8:15, return home at 9:15, leave for work at 10:00, work until 8:00, return home at 8:15, dinner at 9:00, chatting/internet/tv until 10:30......I just might get things done. Maybe.....except.... The whole idea of this kind of regimentation just makes me want to scream. LOLI wonder how other people get everything done??? Maybe I can change my mindset somehow...I work 6 - 7 days a week, so there are few "days off". If I have trouble fitting everything in now, it is no wonder my life was in a shambles when I was gambling all the time! I have a lot of work to do in a lot of areas, to be sure.... So...how do others structure their lives to get things done???? I'm looking for some good ideas! Love you all.....Dianne
