Busy Bee

I try really hard to get everything done, but most of the time I feel like I'm chasing my tail. . .so to speak.

Have you ever seen a dog chase his tail? Not very productive. They don't go anywhere, don't do anything. Except look pretty silly.

I went to a friend's house today. She was babysitting my daughter and I decided to stay for a bit since it had been awhile since we hung out. We used to do this sort of thing all the time, then we had to quit because she had a new baby, holidays.. we just made other things important.

I realized today why I didn't really miss our time together. I do like being with this friend, and am thankful that we have gotten to know each other so well, but it takes me out of my home for over 8 hours. It's almost like I left home to go to a job. It makes it hard to get much done on these types of days. Once I left this friend's home, went to pick up a prescription for Ms. Daisy (mil), filled pill box for Ms. Daisy, came home, put princess (dd) to bed. . .I hardly had time to rest until my son came through the door. Then it's homework, dinner, bath, bed.. . phew! I'm tired just thinking about it.

This same friend whom I saw today made a comment that she's said before. She said that I was one of the busiest people she knows. That may be true, but I don't know what I would do if I had her typical days. Hangin' with the three kiddos and no where to go, nothing to do. Perhaps I like being crazy busy? I'm not ready to admit to that...
