Sustained energy?

Holy hannah, I'm actually up to running full speed with sustained energy all the time this week!

It's more or less a matter, I think, of staying ahead of the wave.  And I know, I KNOW, that's not smart, because it means that if I get sick or get busy, then POWZAMA that wave crashes over me.

But if I can use the energy to get things done, then the impact of the wave inevitably crashing over me is reduced.

Burst of energy

With nothing left to do all summer but be domestic as fuck, I am suddenly filled with new energy!

TO THE HOUSE-WORK O TRON!

And to the FUN KIDS ACTIVITY O TRON!

Not to be passive-aggressive here,

BUT YOU GAVE OUR DAUGHTER HER NIGHT-TIME GLASS OF WATER IN A WINE GLASS.

...

I'm good now.

and she didn't cut herself

Sigh.

So, like, for three years

Milestone


I have attended a preschool graduation.  It's the cutest thing ever.

I smiled like an idiot the whole time.  That's my job

Routine posting!


Phew!  We are about 1/3 of the way through the busiest summer so far, and so far we are surviving!

I just wish there was more time...

Oh yah, I need to check my vacation balance... ... DONE!

Ok, where was I?  Oh right, lamenting my lack of time.

I guess there's new time to be harvested from the evening and morning hours.  Dammit.

Mr. Grumpypants

I get SO grumpy sometimes, for no good damn reason.

I feel, at the time when it happens, completely overwhelmed. And it's labour, like physical labour, to get a deep breath and to push on through it.

The Project Manager is good at commenting on it when it happens, but it's hard to get through.

There's no a lot of warning when it happens, but I guess I could keep my 'eyes' peeled for the warning signs.

It's really important that I get this managed properly. It's not going to get better on its own, quite the opposite
