Still to little time with too much to do

So I did complete 1,200 words today, had a play date for my girls and swam 1,000 meters, helped get Alex off to work, did house chores and I feel like i did nothing!

Why is it that I rush around doing busy things and never accomplishing anything. I have a to do list that grows longer and longer, organized very well, it should not take much for me to complete the list, yet i spend my time otherwise. I have too little time with too much to do. Stated simply and complexly.

So, why with the technology we have do we fill our time with busy work and never stop, do it simply and feel complete?

Instead I choose to make it difficult and try to finish my goal to have 28,000 or so words written. haha that would be 3,632 words a day for the next 5 days. Simple is not going to happen this week.....

Finding my balance

With everything I am trying to do it can be hard to find a balance.

I am training for my first triathlon, getting a new job, raising my children and trying to find time for my passion - writing.

So, my book has evolved. I now have aspects in each of my books about what is going on in my life.

In one book the girl is an avid runner and starting a new life in a town unknown to her - hummmm sound familar?
In the other book my characters are mom's just getting by their own cynical way.

Maybe with the two i will have my full therapy.

We ran and never found the pirate booty...
