It seems like I am always rushing. I am late to a lot of things. My daughter has been late to preschool both days this week, but hey, at least I picked her up on time. I rushed through the mall yesterday so my kids would not have to shop too long. I have rushed through Walmart so I could pick up my daughter from preschool on time. Rush here and there to get somewhere. But why do I do this to myself! Why is it so hard to do something slowly and right the first time so I don't have to return things I did not mean to buy, or so my kids can be on time to school/church/play dates on time! It just is hard though.
It is a hard habit to break!
It seams like by Christmas break I was getting a handle on the schedule of school and things, then we had a two week break and now I am starting back at square one! Seriously why is it so hard to wake up early when you don't have to be somewhere for a few weeks. Why is it so hard to get out of the house when you don't have anything planned. Seriously. It has thrown me off. Now I am at a new normal as well. I have new church responsibilities that have thrown my brain and focus on the fritz. Why do I do this to myself. I will never get more time, I just have to make something of the time I have. I have to set a new routine and stick to it!
Here is to getting back on track with the new year! Here is to new routines and time management! Good luck on your quest as it is surly a quest for me!

I hear you! Just remember that with your new responsibilities, there is an adjustment period. You will eventually adjust to the brain effects that such a change creates and come out better in the end! In the mean time, cut yourself a little slack. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't like rushing either, but I think it's part of the territory when having kids. We're in the middle of our 6-week summer holidays here, and I'm really struggling to get anywhere on time. But, it's okay to have some down-time - if we keep going at the same frantic pace, we will burn out.
