Starting here sounds good.



It is 11:25 p.m.  I haven't showered yet (I shower at night) and I was tired at 3 p.m. today but here I am, still awake.  I can't get my mind to settle.  

  • Did we buy Lunchables for the kids' lunches tomorrow?  
  • How do I get started making those clutches I've been talking about?
  • How am I going to get all the work done for the website project?
  • How do I approach my mom-in-law in asking her if I can photo-chronicle her cancer fight?
  • Why am I so thirsty?
  • Why didn't I clean the laundry room like I had scheduled?
  • Do I really want to attempt to make my first cheesecake this weekend?
  • Do I need to get Orthodox Easter gifts for the kids when Western Easter was just last week?
  • Should we start buying moving boxes now for the move in August?

So here I am.  I am a full-time employee, full-time mom, part-time wife (and a bitchy one right now) and I'm not motivated to do anything right now except sit and change the tv channels.  

The journey ahead feels like the quick countdown on Disney California's "California Screamin'" - a countdown from 10 to a quick 0 to 60 mph start with a turns and a loop for fun and more turns and screams.  Hold on!
