Letting It Settle In

I’m letting it settle in that I won’t be able to have my usual kind of Christmas this year. And I’m realizing that instead I will be open to a different kind of holiday season.

I’m also thinking that I just have to find a way to get more rest. I don’t know how other people have time to relax and watch TV and do nothing. I worked and then went straight to a board meeting for an organization. Then Greg and I had dinner and I came home, took a quick shower, and started working on some freelance writing that needed to be in an inbox by eight am. Now it’s midnight and I’m just laying down. I did one load of laundry and ran the dishwasher but pretty much I worked on things that needed to be done. Am I just slower or less efficient than others? People often tell me I work too hard but I can’t seem to get everything done at this rate. What secrets do others know that have escaped me? How do others get it all done?
