When...

WHEN...This word has been bouncing around in my head all day. I feel plagued with questions of when, when , when!!!

When will I get the laundry done? ---Never
When will I get the house cleaned up ---- Who knows
When will I get the brownies cooked for Emily's school? --- Definately by tomorrow

Some other deeper questions of when plague me today as well.
When will I have another baby?
When will I start eating right?
When will I make exercise a priority?
When will I establish a routine in my life?
When will I make time to read my bible everyday?
When will I make my relationship with God a real priority?
When will I start using my many cookbooks to feed my family?

I am 35 years old and I sometimes feel like I am waiting for the other shoe to drop or some future time to get started on things that I should be doing now. Every day I set out with good intentions to accomplish so many things, but I seem to fritter away my time on meaningless pursuits.

This when that has been walking around in my head must be there for a reason. So for now, I will keep trying to accomplish and will ponder the when's for another day.

Till Next time.

  1. Give yourself a break for goodness sakes. (I think that rhymes)
    you're a mom, wife, student.....
    Make a list & budget your time, only do what you really want, the house doesn't have to be perfect, get David to do a few loads of laundry and if you think you have no time now, just wait until you have another child. I'm just saying.....

  2. Girlfriend--I feel you. I am just glad to know that I am not the only one that has these questions rattling around in my brain. The only thing I can tell you is that you are not alone. I am here with you. (I think that is an R. Kelly song). Ha!
