Besides the fact that when I ran across this saying I thought it was hilarious it’s also kind of how I feel right now.
I have a million different things always going on at any one time.
(And a million other things waiting to be done.)
So when I come to a sudden stop I can’t always remember what I was in the middle of doing, should be doing, or what I need to be doing.
Sound familiar to anyone else?
Over the last few days I’ve been thinking about the crazy pace we’ve been keeping around here and have decided that it’s time to STOP….in the name of love…so I’m going to collaborate and listen to my family and then, it’s Hammertime.
Too many references to the quote?
Probably.
But either way it’s time to slow down the pace…the holidays are coming and I am determined, DETERMINED, that we are going have a calm, peaceful, family packed holiday season.
Determined.

Just the laugh I needed today. That quote is hilarious! Glad you are taking time to do all three. This blog will be right here when you get back. Lol.

Oh, I’m not leaving the blog…just reorganizing, prioritizing and taking things off my to do list that really don’t matter if they get done or not….
(And I’m going to stop volunteering to do things that I don’t really want to do ! 🙂

Good comment about stop volunteering to do things that you don’t want to do. It took me a few years to get to that point and when I did, I finally had time for the things I DID want to do. Good luck with it!

When I saw this quote posted on facebook yesterday it made me chuckle. This is definitely the life of so many of us these days. I need to pair down my list as well and maybe I can do exactly what you said in your blog. Thanks for always being so inspiring!!!

When you figure out how to accomplish this part, “we are going have a calm, peaceful, family packed holiday season.”, please let us know. I’ve been trying to get to that point for years now!

Oh, I knew you weren’t leaving. I was just referring to those times you don’t work on the blog. Sorry my words did not communicate that. Good for you and your boundary setting mentality! I’m also trying to let my yes be yes and my no be no without guilt.
