I just realized that I hadn't posted anything since June (last year). It's not that I didn't have anything to say but the time just got away from me. Summer always is crammed with more actives, more projects, more adventures, and more wasting time doing things that you never intend to do. I sometimes feel like I need to make a "budget" for my time just like for the money. I guess that is called a schedule, but my life never does fit into a schedule. At work, we throw the "schedule" out the window some days as nothing is ever on time, or they just show up and spring a 3 hour job on you when there is only 10 minutes (so much for lunch that day). I have caught myself having to ask for permission to use the restroom like when I was in grade school.
A favorite interruption tactic is to touch every thing in the bathroom. It stalls a good 15 minutes or more from the schedule for additional sanitation . |
After having children, I realized I can be very efficient with time. It is amazing what I can accomplish with just one hour with out them or during naps. It is an extremely successful moment if they can both nap or entertain themselves at the SAME time. I think I have mentioned before, but we choose not to have any outside television source. We have already viewed movies but nothing new. No daily news, sitcoms, reality TV, or night shows. We are living our own current events. It has been almost six years and I can't say that I miss it. I get hooked and can feel the withdrawal when I am visiting someone who has satellite or cable. I just don't know how I would get anything done with that added distraction, I can't seem to get anything done now.
Sometimes the necessities get forgotten when your toddler wants to "DO IT" |
I am so grateful that God has a time for everything (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8) and he has made everything beautiful in its time (vs. 11).
