Just Enough
I’m so glad it’s Friday! I’ve had a few weeks of “just enough” in my productivity and it’s starting to really bug me. You know, those times when you’re getting just enough done to feel okay but not enough done to feel the satisfaction of accomplishment.
Some of my piles are growing, there’s some drawers and cabinets that need my organization attention, my garden and yard are screaming for some as well. I know I need to just force myself to tackle them and I’ll feel better but some days it’s so hard. Wonder why that is? My computer isn’t helping because it’s so much fun! I’m finding so many fun things I can spend time doing with graphics, music, etc.
I know I have to get things on track because next month is full of some bigger commitments which mean I need to get them organized now. How come all the “miracle juice/pills/etc.” MLM companies can’t bottle and promote something for procrastination? *giggle*
On the upside, some fun things this week included going to the screening with hubby of “Ghost Town” which was truly a fun surprise! I laughed so hard I cried for several minutes. Can’t remember the last time I laughed that hard in a movie. Read Blake’s review.
I’ve had a week full of friends and family and you can’t beat that. Next week though, I’ve got to get more than just enough of the yucky work done!

I know just what you mean and I love that you can laugh about it! Thanks for the smile today — you are always refreshing!
I’m heading off to do peaches! I guess it’s that time of year again! I can eat canned pears - but not canned peaches; hence the bottling today!
Hugs…
It is that time…good luck with the peaches!

I like to get a hold of one those “easy button” I see in the Staples commercials. That button would make all of our lives easier.
Me too!

Amen, Holly. I often say I need a good swift kick to get myself in gear. Once I’m actually IN gear, watch out. But sometimes I hit a low ebb and find myself cruising along for a bit. I guess I can’t be sprinting all the time. I’d wear myself out.
This week promises to be a sprint week. I think I’ll sleep it off next weekend!
Glad to know I’m not the only one…have a great sprint!
