Got balance?

Nope.
Maybe it's the bull in me, I'm a Taurus after all. We enjoy our predictable patterns - slowly trudging along with our one-thing-at-a-time kind of nature.
Trying to juggle things makes me crazy. I'm totally frustrated working on one thing and knowing very well that other thing is over in the corner demanding attention too. I feel every loose end. While trying to fall asleep I agonize over how each minute will be spent the next day trying to wrap everything up. Are you with me fellow bulls?

I've tried lists...
- feel the failure when everything's not crossed off.
I've tried using spare minutes in between stuff...
- feel the anxiety when you see no real progress.
I've tried bouncing between projects...
- feel the dizziness as your head spins.

I'll have to go with my gut for now using time demands to determine priorities, fitting in family and house crap when I can. I've got illustrations that need painting, a large mosaic that needs tiling, a baby shower that needs planning, a house that needs building, a job that I need to show up to, and a husband that needs a butt kicking (he he). But right now all I can think about is getting some sleep.

I know what you mean! I guess it's the Taurus nature. I can't do lists and I value sleep above many, many things. :)
