The days need to have more hours in them...

[mousme]

I have too much stuff to do, and not enough time. Or, rather, I might have enough time if the Overtime Fairy wasn't sucking me dry.

Here's what I'd be doing, ideally, if I had all the time I wanted (and the attendant energy):

-writing for at least an hour a day;
-going to the gym a minimum of four times a week;
-prepping my seeds for the garden (again);
-cooking in bulk for the next little while;
-grocery shopping;
-doing some housecleaning;
-slowly acquiring furniture so my guests have somewhere to sleep when they come in August;
-visiting my parents once a week;
-seeing my friends more than once every two months.

Here's what I've managed:

-going to the gym twice a week (I started ten days ago, so it's not too bad);
-seeing some of my friends once in the past two months;
-doing the dishes;
-doing a couple of loads of laundry as needed.

...


That's it. The rest has all fallen by the wayside due to work. *sigh*

If I were a little more brutal with myself, I could probably get more done in my days. As it is, I waste lots of hours on sleeping, go figure. Also, instead of taking an hour in the evenings to unwind with the X-Files or some other TV show, I could probably use it to clean or do something else equally productive, but to be honest these days I just don't have the energy or inclination.

Four more months of this. Then, in theory, all the n00bs will be here and trained. Four more months...

Don't be so hard on yourself. Sleep is a good thing.
