I’ve been suffering at the hands of shorter naps. It’s amazing how much you can’t get done when a pleasantly long nap (4 hours) turns into a pleasantly short one (1.5 hours at best). And how much work I can get done on any particular day is really difficult to predict. One day, the toddler will want me to be involved in everything she’s doing ever second of the day; and the next day she’ll be completely contented doing her own thing. The planner in me hates it, but if I roll with it we are both better for it.

I like using the “15 min” thing when I get stuck with way too much to accomplish. Pick something to do, like in my case, “clean out the garage”. Then look at the clock. Then start doing for 15 min. Even if I just shuffle things around a little bit, maybe throw away a few items… at least it is something toward the end goal. Once the 15 min is up, then stop. It does help to tackle things in bite-sized amounts!

Ah, mindfulness. I could take a lesson in that right now myself. Focus has been hard this week. So much to do and seemingly so little time. Prioritizing has been a must but it is so easy to get caught up in twittering and reading posts that sitting down to do some serious writing, mostly for my school application but also for the blog, has taken a back seat somehow. Must get back on track. Must do schoolwork first. Passionate love affair with blogging will return once other things are out of the way…
