A planned life.

Do you ever feel like life is getting in the way of pursuing life? Right now I have so many things going on. I'm playing volleyball Mondays. I volunteer on Tuesdays. I do church stuff Wednesday and Sunday. I actually spent the majority of last weekend doing church related things. I have such a crapload of work that I've been doing it at every spare hour of the day. Last night, for example, I went back to work after the singles thing and worked from 9-12:30. My calendar is starting to look like a deck of cards there are so many things overlapping. The only days I'm free are Friday and Saturday, and those days are usually spent recovering from the other 5 (laundry, cleaning the house, mowing the lawn, running errands).

As a result, I haven't danced in about least three weeks. I've been trying to pull my engine for about 2. There's a pie from Easter in my fridge that I still haven't had a chance to eat (it is still good though). I haven't washed my light colors in about a month. Perhaps most frustrating is the fact that I don't feel like I have the time to honestly pursue relationships (both romantic and otherwise). For every thing I want to do, there is something else I have to give up.

So will I change things? Probably. Do I want to change things? I do. Am I currently doing what I really want to do? Mostly. Would I give up my crazy life for a more relaxed one? Never.

Oh and bonus points for those who spotted the fairy wings (it was a crazy b-day).

So are you gonna do like Tim and just start buying new underwear instead of bothering with washing the old?

I'm just now finding time to start working on that heap we towed from Hyde Park. Change the oil - that helped a LOT actually. I still gotta test the radiator fan and fix an exhaust leak though...

So...fairy wings, huh? That really must have been an interesting birthday.

About life getting in the way of life: I totally understand how you feel. I was in this situation for a long time, and it took my move to Texas to really get me out of it. I'd recommend taking some time soon to sit down and prioritize some of the things you have going on, just to make sure you're spending your time where you really want to spend it. If you are, great. But if you aren't, then you can start to make any changes you deem necessary.
