Do you have one? I do and it’s growing longer. It’s a to-do list of things I need to do (obviously) AND want to do but I have to pick and choose… always.
Yes, some things are musts, like chores… vacuuming, laundry, dusting. Then there are the things that crop up and need to be dealt with at home from MY laptop like answering emails, I had a course to try to prep for (which isn’t running now so…) Then on to editing and taking down Christmas decorations which always makes me sad. Though I just had a brilliant idea… what if I leave my cardholder up all year with the cards in it? A little bit of Christmas wishes all year?
I did manage to answer some emails last evening but my bedtime was slightly delayed. One of those emails was from December 8th and I felt really bad for missing the opportunity to write back sooner.
Then more things have been added, again but at least I don’t have to prep for the course now. I don’t know exactly how I feel about that because I really wanted to opportunity to teach it as they’ve changed the curriculum.
I haven’t even had a chance to start editing my Christmas Judge story OR the one I wrote last Sunday. Haven’t even had a chance to look at them.
At this moment, as I’m packing up to head out for the night I’m trying to figure out if I take my laptop tonight or not because the weather is supposed to get really bad and it might be several hours tomorrow before I can get back home.
So, while I would love to keep writing, I have things to do!
