Can't type, typing.today is the first day since giving birth to Monte where I have official time to write, blog, plan, work on my website and I am ... all over the shop. anxious, not sure where to start. too busy. putting fullstops. in inappropriate places.
I am sitting down to write then noticing I need to mop the floor - grab the mop then tell myself "No, this is my writing time" and force myself back to my seat.
Problems I tell you!
My Ma and Pa (so don't call them that) have agreed to mind da boy from 2-5 mon-fri, for which I am extremely grateful.
Particularly since Monte became mobile and has taken to climbing on lounges, tables - shaking milk around the room and opening the dishwasher (kill me now!)
These 3 hours of me-time are needed and I have some foundations to put down for my ambitions to get off the ground!!
You see I have a BIG website launch looming - with so much to do for it that I am frozen!
In fact I am frozen in every regard - because in the same breath I am longing to organise a Blogging Get together in the OHT - nationwide (no small dreams here) AND look into starting a Kayaking business.
Am I crackers? Over ambitious? Enthusiastic? Maybe all, maybe none...but I am just following my instincts here...
I have a to-do list longer than my life and I don't know where to start!
So thought I'd try and clear the cobwebs by unleashing these feelings out on you.
It is like the feeling I get when Monte has his one hour kip - I start washing the dishes , than halfway through that I make a cup of tea, type an email and pull in a pair of socks off the line.....
I feel that I don't have enough time to do all the things so start doing them all in a rather rushed manner.... but never really completing any...
There is a lesson in here somewhere isn't there....
Maybe I will take a deep breath , slow down, and focus on one at a time ...
apparantly we can have it all, just not all at once...
what is 'it all' anyway?
I have become so accustomed to multi-tasking I have lost the ability to single-task.
hopefully tomorrow the excitement of having these 3 hours will have calmed down and I'll be a dash more productive
Has anyone ever felt completely overwhelmed with projects and the feeling they do not have enough time - yet conquered this and came out on top?
Inspire me, please!
