A Face to the Name

That is me up there on the right......now you can put a face to the Day Dreamer name. I loved the little quotes I pulled from pinterest. See - I spread my self beyond thin these past four months. I needed a little reminder to put my mind over the matter. To take care of my physical self while I continued to work on the emotional self.

Work - school - home - gym. When I first moved into the house - it was summer and I was able to find a rhythm to my life that worked and worked well. My home was immaculate, I was relatively stress free able to move furniture daily if I wanted or play in my garden that I inherited (which I am sure to kill in the next couple years) When my semester started and 3rd grade started for my daughter, it was harder for me to find a rhythm that worked. Actually come to think of it - I still haven't found it. Our days are packed. To the GILLS.

Did I tell you about the dog that was thrown into our lives? NO?! Ms. Bella Vida Spots came into our lives when I witnessed some one throw her from a car into traffic. Naturally I threw my car into park during rush  hour traffic to weave between cars and retrieve this poor little dog. Who let me share with you looked like a shaggy, ragamuffin, stinky, matted mess. Right now we aren't talking about V we are talking about my inability to balance my time.

So now as dog owner comes all the responsibility because I..... MY FRIENDS HAD TOO MUCH SPARE TIME. That adds to  my scheduling deficit, no wonder I have dishes in my sink everyday!! up with the sun (before it) walk the dog, convince an 8 yr old it is in her best interest to listen to her mommy and get ready for school....coffee...breakfast...lunches..... RUUUUUUN. Arrive to work, get out of work run to taekwondo to get the daughter, get home walk the dog - dinner - bath - daughter to bed!! Home work, study, reading (during those last 2 I am already passed out.)

Recently I got this super idea to actively take on a blog.......this blog.......in hopes that my story - might make some one leading a hurried life SMILE, because its funny. I mean it can be reeeeeallly frustrating. But I am finding the humor in the fact that i don't make it to 10pm unless my pre-work out hasn't worn off. Aside from wanting someone else to have a take a way from my writing I think it feels good to have a forum to just write. Write about what is real and relevant in my world at that very moment.

I had some one tell me, you aren't Super Woman, you can't do it all. I took it almost as a challenge. I can do it all. It will take me time, and I am most definitely going to get it wrong from time to time. But I will win. The prize at stake is - raising a well rounded tolerant decent human, paying off my house in 10-15 years versus 30 and graduating from college. Game on!

I hope that you guys are trying to win at whatever YOUR prize is too!
