Time...or lack of

Time...something I always seem to be running short on.

It's a funny thing though as I don't really want more of it - as let's face it if I had more, I'd just have more to loose.

I have (like most people) so many things to do on a daily basis and the very best intentions to do them but each and every day something happens where I get caught up and manage to NOT do at least some of the things I had planned.

I use a diary. I write lists. I set alarms. Nothing seems to really work though - I'm not sure why. I want to blame being a mother...but I can't as it's really always been the case. Various 'things' always creep up, they always have.

In my 'pre-mum' days it was meetings, phone calls, deadline reports, colleague conversations, red lights, out of milk, missed the tram, more meetings, more phone calls etc etc.

In 'post-mum/working from home' days its; 'I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, I'm bored, muuuum toilet!, phone calls, cleaning, washing, I'm hungry, better clean the sewing room'.  Not to mention the other things like, getting caught up procrastinating cleaning the fabric cupboard or rediscovering the stash of ribbon in that drawer.

I always seem to run out of TIME and yet I know if I had more nothing would change.

Even writing this blog - I should have done it days ago...but other things popped up and I ran low on time and so I'm doing it now...late!

I'm not really sure though the more i type and the more I think about it if time is really the problem...maybe I need to get better at follow through? it won't always work as 'things' always pop up, but perhaps it's worth a try...

I'll leave it there and move onto the next thing on my list of planned tasks :-)
