A blog that I enjoy reading, Unclutterer, has a regular section titled “A year ago…”. It highlights posts written from, well, a year ago. I love this concept and I’m going to steal it, but considering that I took a break from blogging a year ago, I’m going back two years.

Time. Does anyone have it?: “Why does it seem that we are all working triple overtime in life? Seriously, I am trying my best to simplify, to slow down and get myself more time. It seems lately that I’ve been doing the opposite….”

Why does it seem that we are all working triple overtime in life? Seriously, I am trying my best to simplify, to slow down and get myself more time. It seems lately that I’ve been doing the opposite.
i get excited about projects, I say ‘yes’ to everything because I genuinely want to do it. But when?
Even writing simple blog posts sometimes seems like a chore. It’s scary when the things you love doing feel that way.
Sometimes I even feel like that about my darling puppy, Spanky 2.0. She just takes up so much of my time and energy that occasionally (i will sheepishly admit) I wonder what my life would be like without her. Of course, then she does something that makes me burst a gut laughing and I realize that my life would be without a lot of joy. But I would have time.
I need to cut back on something. Something big, and not something I enjoy doing. What could it be? I really need to sit down, make a list of the big things in my life and call those people up and say “Sorry. That’s just not getting done. You’ll have to find someone else who is qualified.”
I can’t keep living my life like this. Feeling like I have no room for error. It makes me feel old and like I’m missing out on the important things.
