I’m behind at life.

by Steph on February 15, 2008

I’ve got a kazillion and one things to do. None of them require much work, nor are they terribly important. But seeing my To Do list makes me want to go back to bed. What’s sad is that I’m not sure how the list got so long in the first place. We haven’t really done anything lately, so I can’t claim a hectic schedule. There aren’t any upcoming trips or occasions for which I’ve been preparing. There’s no excuse for this list being so long, other than my own unwillingness to get started. Man, I hate that.

I also hate that I’ve started viewing my blog as another task on my To Do list. That was never, ever the point of this thing. The point was for me to have a place to share funny kid stories, occasional funny Bill stories, a few pictures, etc. etc. etc. In other words, it was supposed to be goofy and fun. (And maybe ranty and bitchy sometimes.) For whatever reason, that changed in my peabrain, and this is yet another chore I’m not getting done everyday like I should.

I know, I know — I’m an adult. I get to pick what I should do, but I’m still trying to figure out what’s a “should” really and what’s a “should” only in my tiny little brain. So, if y’all could bear with me while I get caught up at life, that would be awesome.

We’ll bear with you!

Sometime the blog is a chore and I just don’t post cause it would be stupid and crappy (more stupid and crappy than usual…).

Amy – That’s how I’ve been feeling lately. I’ve got nothing terribly exciting to say – so why say anything?

For the record, your blog is never stupid and crappy. :P

Yep, we will bear with you. You shouldn’t feel pressured to post every day. At least you were smart enough not to put “…Of The Day” in your blog name. D’oh!

I feel the same way! Do what you need to do to stay sane. I just posted my own message about To Do Lists. How funny!

carymc – Oh, man. Thanks. That totally puts it in perspective. Poor you. Except not because you come up with stuff that makes me laugh every stinkin’ day.

Loren – I’ll head over and read soon. :) I decided today the only solution to getting my To Do list(s) done would be to get rid of my kids. Since I like my kids (most days I figure I’ll keep ‘em anyway), I’ll live with my long, never-finished To Do lists. Or hand them to my husband. :grin:

You need to rethink your thinking. To do lists are out. Think “Great Possibilities”
Your blog is a great possibility. Something wonderful yet to happen.
Your laundry has the great possibility to become marvelous clothes.
Life is great because you have so many “Great Possibilities” .
