@Jenn @C: I'm glad I'm not the only one to feel like that and will be sure to share some secrets if I find them (of course, I could probably bottle it and sell it for millions! *mwuah*). I don't even have kids to force me to run around and be on the go so I'm easily a slave to the whole "who cares, it just me" idea, because men don't see messes or issues or tasks. Lucky! @Brooke: I like that philosophy but in practice, I have such a hard time with it. It's an addiction. I wonder if they have groups for it! :-)

You basically just summed up my entire life. All of it. I need to do better. I WILL do better. WE WILL do better -ha ha

My rule? Reality shows will never, ever be the GREATEST THING EVER. You can safely delete all episodes of those without watching them and never miss a thing.

I’m a somewhat lazy person by nature, but having kids kind of forces me out of that role, and so I’m on the go with dishes and laundry and a slew of housework all day long. I certainly don’t enjoy it, and I can think of 50 things I’d rather do than fold clothes or scrub pots and pans, but meh. I deal.

“I just don’t have the time to do everything I want to do to the fullest extent.” That definitely sums me up. And like you, I don’t want to commit to doing something unless I can see it all the way through. Hence why I still have an empty photo album to fill, a scrapbook to complete, a couple of online projects to tackle, and so on and so forth.

Now books? Those I can read. It may take me a few days or a week, depending on how into the book I am and how desperate I am to finish it up, but I do chug through them. Even if I give up sleep in order to do so!

If you find that balance, please let me know!
