I ...This upcoming move is really screwing with me. I really want to just dive into the whole prep work for that but there are other things that I am trying to get done too. It's hard for me to put a project aside before it's done--even if it's just so that I can work on something else for awhile! <br /><br />I did find my PCS notebook, which was a huge relief. Of course, I could only find one of my sticky notes so go figure. lolAmanda95noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561534041050751125.post-17099480007697445162010-03-27T00:45:45.833-04:002010-03-27T00:45:45.833-04:00It always helps to know I'm not alone, though....It always helps to know I'm not alone, though. :)Amanda95noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561534041050751125.post-18953810150730040352010-03-27T00:13:30.571-04:002010-03-27T00:13:30.571-04:00Balance?

If I decide to clean the bathroom, it takes me anywhere between 3 to 4 hours to get it done. Why? Cuz I'm a perfectionist and have to scrub every little cubby until it's clean. So...I have managed to ignore it most of the time. "Ooh...look, ring around the tub. Yeah, I should probably clean that today!" I have lists and can usually find them until I decide I've had enough and chuck everything into a nearby bin to "clean" and then have to spend 3 hours searching for the notebook I'm sure is in there...only to find it somewhere else! and, like you...if I'm interested, I can totally get into it...to the point where I ignore everything else. After all, there's a lot more interesting out there these days! lol<br /><br />So, I somewhat cope. I try to have lists of daily chores and I usually make it to Wednesday before I'm just not interested anymore. So...I put the stuff I hate doing first to get them out of the way...which would explain why I haven't done "real" groceries in months (that falls on a Thursday). lol I have a small calendar that I carry around everywhere so that I can at least keep track of the dates of stuff. So far, so good!<br /><br />Hope you find your PCS notebook soon! Sorry I couldn't be more help...but I can totally relate! lolTerrinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561534041050751125.post-38021234106376224142010-03-27T00:08:02.789-04:002010-03-27T00:08:02.789-04:00Ugh I so know what you mean.

I know I've just tucked it away somewhere (because there's no way I would forget it there, lol) but I haven't stumbled across it yet. So now I have a couple of sticky notes that have things I need to add to the PCS notebook...what do you think the chances are of still having those sticky notes when I do finally find the notebook? *sigh*<br /><br />BTW, you do NOT half ass everything.

I make lists but then they get lost in the piles of paper the girls leave around the house. If I try to remember something I just gets lost in the shuffle of all the other information my two drama queens lay on me in a day. Will gets about 15 emails from me a day just because I will never remember to tell him everything by the time he gets home... I guess I should make a conversations to have with Will list. If only he would respond to those emails life would be so much easier....Melanienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4561534041050751125.post-383722720404241762010-03-26T23:11:03.574-04:002010-03-26T23:11:03.574-04:00That is funny!

Also, lists help me. Meditating and starting the day off quietly with some exercise and me time are good (need to do more of that, though!). Hope that helps. Look forward to reading others' suggestions, too.Sarahnoreply@blogger.com
