10 things to do this week plus some

I was reading a blog and found that the author would put up 10 things she was going to do for the week.  I have decided to try it.  I have way more than 10 things to do as I tend to procrastinate a little and in my defense have been taking a college course since the beginning of September.

So here goes the list:

1.   Write final exam

2.   Paint Kitchen












3.   Put up holiday decorations
4.   Wrap Gifts
5.   Organize apartment
6.   Bake cookies
7.   Organize Papers for upcoming taxes and to find papers I haven't been able to locate since I moved.
8.   Finish unpacking and setting up apartment
9.   Set up stereo equipment (this one I will get help with)
10.  Purchase/find gift for Secret Sister Dinner

There is so much more I have to do.  I didn't even mention the blog or beaded decorations I wanted to make for people this year.  So little time....sigh.

Where is the balance?

Everyday I wake up with big plans of getting some exercise, making some jewelry, Christmas decorations and cards and somehow it is now just before Christmas and I have not gotten in any better shape and have only made one pair of earrings this year....Where is the balance? How do I stop everyday life from stopping me.  By the time I get home from work, make dinner and do all the things I have to do which now also include a college course and a volunteer position I have no time for the things I set out to do at the beginning of the year.  I do not know where I could possibly squeeze in another hour or so....I am already exhausted.  I had mistakenly thought that when I sold my house and no longer had that maintenance to look after I would have more time...nope not so.  Okay so I got a job that I only work 35 hours a week and get off at 2:30 on Fridays and I could use that time....nope....now it just gets used for errands most times.... I keep asking myself this q...
