Monday is too much with us

That's a variation of a phrase my mom is wont to quote -- "Life is too much with us." It would seem there are many who are struggling with Monday today -- but I pray the day improves for you all.

I am actually doing better today than I have been all weekend. I've been under the weather a bit the last few days, but I'm starting to feel better, finally. Yay!

Something about a Monday, though, makes one think about goals for the week, and when I start doing that, I get all nervous and panicky about all the stuff I haven't gotten around to yet. That List of Doom is beginning to grow heavy again!

Which is why I am using my new icon today -- to remind me to leave time for myself, in spite of all I have to do. Boromir is the sworn enemy of my List of Doom, so he'll help me keep things in perspective!

Some of my goals this week include:
- visit with [livejournal.com profile] pippinswolf if we can work something out; that'll be a fun thing!
- driving with my son -- he's doing well with that, which is encouraging!
- helping said son get all his ducks in a row to start at the local community college in a few weeks
- get to the eye doctor, I just know I need new glasses!
- do expense accounts, ugh!
- my usual RW writing project for the month

Oh, and yes, focus on Boromir, as needed. ;-)

I know you can do it, I have faith in you!

My goals for this week include catching up on your wonderful writings!
Now that I haev the time, I can immerse myself in Boromir goodness.

Psst...I think I might have just convinced lil' Cap'n skywalker to perhaps join us for the LOTR exhibit....wheee!

feeling better, did you tell us you were feeling poorly? i dont think you did...but i might be mistaken? (if you did, sorry, i missed it. if you didnt, why not? we could have been praying for you.)

as for monday, yep - goals. thank goodness my only goal last week was to pay the bills and although terriblly late, i got it done saturday night and in the mail sunday afternoon. huge load off my shoulders.

dont work too hard. glad to hear about nathan and college! and about driving improvments too.
