The "end" is in sight

The saying on my coffee cup today is "Give yourself a break -- set aside some time today for YOU!"

What good advice! :-D I actually think I shall be able to do that without upsetting the apple cart too much, as I am beginning to see the finish line for a couple of the projects which have occupied my time and my thoughts so much of late. The point is, of course, that we should always make time for ourselves even when we don't seem to have time for it, because we will work better for having had a break -- and that's something I need to keep reminding myself to do!

Of course, I also realize that one is never really "finished" with the tasks to be accomplished in life -- there is always another one waiting to take the place of the one we just finished! But if I look at the big picture it's too much to contemplate. So I'm looking at the goal line for a couple of things that I am currently working on, and when they are done, I will greatly enjoy my break. ;-)

And I know those jobs will be done today. Yay!

What a day!

My confidence that I would finish some projects must have invoked Murphy's Law, as I have never had so many interruptions as I did today -- lots of little stuff that wasn't hard, but threw me off schedule so that I only finished one of things I wanted to have put behind me by the end of the day. Drat! I really wanted them both to be done by now. :-(

I'm still going to have to take some time for myself this evening so that I will be rested for tomorrow. I am reorganizing my plans for my "day off" to include an unexpected meeting and working on the unfinished article. Already on the list of things to do is vote, do some cleaning, and go to a seminar in the evening -- hubby will have to take on the other errands I can't manage. I bet the cleaning won't happen either, but there should always be one thing on the list that can easily be removed in case of Murphy showing up with his Law.

In spite of Murphy, I am still feeling cheerful, and will feel even more so after this headache goes away. I think I may have forgotten to have enough lunch today... Which reminds me, it's time to make supper!

:-D
