Time - I seem to have lost it
It used to be that I knew how my day would go. I'd wake up in the morning, get dressed while dh was feeding kids. Then, I'd get the kids ready for school, drop daughter off at school and head to pilates where my son would run off some energy. We'd return home, he'd have a snack while I checked emails. Before I knew it, it would be lunch and then his nap time. While he slept, I'd write.
Ever since the hurricane, the things that would have gotten done got pushed to the back burner since we weren't at home. I've got so much catching up to do that I don't know if I'll ever catch up. I'm thinking that maybe I should just skip sleeping. Do you know how much I could get done while everyone was alseep and I didn't hear, "Mommmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaa!!!", or, "Honey?".
I'm what my husband calls "anal". I prefer "organized". Between all the PRO stuff, RWA board stuff, getting publishind and all that goes along with it, helping choreograph my daughter's little Christmas show at school, getting the house fixed from the hurricane and now Christmas, I barely have time to eat (which could be a good thing).
Not that I'm complaining about it all, just hoping I can keep up. Its messing with my set schedule, and I've got to fit it into a schedule somehow or go crazy! :)
I was able to scratch a couple of things off my "To-Do" list. Although, now that those things are crossed off, I had to add a couple of more. (sigh) Guess I better go finish judging those contest entries before I get an email asking why I haven't sent them back yet. But, hey, it'll be another thing I can mark off the list. :D

I always feel better when I see things getting crossed off. Makes me feel like I'm actually accomplishing something.
Good for you! I'm so glad you finally sold!!!! Yeah! We need to catch up!
Me, too, Kelly, and I can say that I've got to mark off a couple of more things on my list AND not add anything. :D
Thanks, Jax! Yes, I've been meaning to write you. :)
