I'm making it!

I'm back!  I can't believe it, but I am able to come back and blog again thanks to my husband spending all our waking hours watching you-tube videos of fisher men...and that was last night. I tried.  My step-daughter came in with her husband and son and visited right as I was getting into my blog.  So I put the computer away.  And then Trump came on, and I wanted to hear him speak, and the you-tube videos were blasting and the baby was whiny, and Crissy was talking...so yeah, no.

And then tonight I was swishing and swiping in the bathroom, and JJ came in to do his business. And I sat down to blog again tonight, and Erin said, "Hey you remember you were going to braid my hair?"  And Trump is on again...and the videos are playing too.

So, when do I get to do what I want to?  How about when I was trying to cook supper, and I turned the oven on and went into the living room to dance, but I never put the pot pies in the oven. And then I went in to check on the pot pies later only to discover that when the rice was done I turned off the oven too, so the pot pies didn't cook all the way.

I'd say that I need a little bit of mommy time that is guilt free.  It seems that these days I am doing six things at once. I seem so busy that I spin my wheels and don't get anything done.  It is so hard for me to appear professional at work when I seem so spread thin.

So every morning with my coffee I say my few little prayers, and when I get to work I meditate on my Saint Francis prayer.  I keep my rosary at work where I can see it, and should I have a moment, I have a rosary power point on my desk top.  An image of Divine Mercy runs on my screen saver, and I just try to stay focused on one job at a time every day. I have a great habit of getting a bit dramatic about things, and I let things look like they get to me.

Say a prayer for me. I feel like butter over too much toast.  

Peace and Blessings
