Staying on track...


Did you miss me? I sure hope so!

Have you ever felt like you have so much to do that you may never get back on track?

That’s where I am at. I think I have been there for a while. Piles upon piles of stuff. I find myself standing around scratching my head wondering where to begin.

Our house is in such a mess one would think we just moved in. That’s not the case. We have been here for quite some time.

I have been trying to clean out, clean up and get rid of things that are no longer in use or have just completely been forgotten over the years, You know the stuff I am talking about. The stuff you look at and wonder where that came from. I have been looking at a lot of things that way and maybe that’s why I am not staying on track.

Not staying on track is the reason I completely missed my weekly Sunday blog post last week. But my husband gave me the idea of “staying on track” as a blog entry and I thought it would be a good Sunday come back.

 I used to be OCD, but I am not sure about that anymore.

In college I had everything just so-so. List of what homework was due when. There were certain days I did laundry (thank goodness for coming home to ma-maw’s house). There were certain days I went to the grocery store. Every second of every day was planned out. And maybe, just maybe that is why staying on track is so hard now because I was so on track then.

It’s nice to have those days and moments where you can just drink a cup of coffee and read a book for no reason other than you just feel like it. Raise your hand if you are guilty of that. Pick me, pick me! Yeap, guilty for reading and drinking coffee!

However, life goes on and as I said a few paragraphs ago things pile up. And I don’t mean just the laundry. I have tried to-do list and somehow they just pile up too collecting dust. Epic fail on my part!

So, I have decided to triage my life. Very important, important, not so important and then who really cares.

Hopefully this works. Wish me luck!
