'Tis Monday again, and time for some more goals!

[linaewen]

Thankfully, I survived last week, and I seem to have accomplished what I set out to do -- though not without great weariness and some despair. My love and thanks go to all of you who put in a good word for me when I needed it (whether it was on the day or after the fact, it still helped), and to all of you who wished you could have said a word but were having time struggles of your own. Thanks for thinking of me and saying those prayers and sending those good thoughts my direction.

I'm still a bit bleary-eyed, but I got 10 hours of sleep last night, and I think I'm almost caught up. Most of the guests have arrived, and things are settled, and we are having a great time together, so that is a load off my mind. I didn't finish all my cleaning, but I have time to work on that this week.

My goals for the week include:
- finish a thorough cleaning and setting up of the last two rooms in the house that need it (i.e., the ones where I stashed all the stuff from the other rooms so I could get them clean in time!!!)
- editing and proof-reading a couple of things at the office that are due this week
- learn how to do the very frightening phone system at the office, so I can be receptionist on call when necessary (yikes!!)
- do some driving practice with my son
- go see National Treasure one more time with my son, while it is still in town
- help my son renew his passport so we are ready to take a trip to Pakistan if that works out this spring
- make sure I make some time for myself everyday to do my own things that help me relax

And for right now -- have another cup of coffee, put a load of laundry in, and get over to the office to begin my work day!

So glad you got so much accomplished, with no permanent damage! Sleep deprivation can be fixed, after all, even though it makes us feel so miserable.

IF that second cup of coffee is Lothithil's brew, you had best watch out! You may not accomplish as much as you want!

I really hope that you don't sarife the time for yourself if things get to hectic. You deserve that time, my dear!

Hmm, that should have read, don't "sacrifice" the time for yourself!
