Crisis mode doesn’t fix anything

Woohoo, I think I like the look of my new blog. Now, to get some posts made!

Once again, I find myself pondering the huge number of Really Important Things That I Need to Do, And Right Now. Clean the floors, prepare the next girl scout meeting, sell cookies, help the kids with homework, cub scout activities, piano lessons, UIL Music Memory contest, work on this web site, work on the Stitchery Mall web site, buy groceries, pay bills, plan menus, exercise… If I dropped everything to concentrate on any one of them for a whole day or two, then I could really feel some progress - and that’s good, right? But then everything else would REALLY go to pot, and they’re important too (else they wouldn’t be on that RITTINDARN list)

Operating in Crisis Mode just sticks a band-aid on one thing, or maybe two. It doesn’t really help, though. So once more, I’m re-committing to baby-stepping my way through everything, and doing a little bit of everything every day.

Oh yeah, and I’m giving up my puzzle site until after 8 PM. *sigh* There, I said it out loud. Now I have to do it! LOL!

So how about you? Are you having trouble getting out of crisis mode, too? Is there a precious time-waster that you need to give up or limit?

    I am trying to baby step out of the crisis mode I am in right now. Having been sickly the last 7 weeks has really taken it’s toll on my house. UGH!
    Here is the really scary stuff “we are having a birthday party here on Sunday 2/10!” I gotta move it!

    I lose time having to take breaks for the neuropathy in my feet and trying not to get overheated, surely don’t need to have an asthma attack.

    The time waster I guess would be snuggling with my granddaughter, but I cannot make myself believe that is wasting time.
