I've got three events happening in the next two months....and when I'm not busy freaking out about how I'm going to get everything done, I'm actually able to convince myself that I haven't bitten off more than I can chew. Of course, such serene moments occur infrequently and are almost always short-lived.
While I've been travelling the last few days, I haven't been able to do a lot of the jobs that need doing...but I did accomplish something (besides stressing myself out) -- I made up a master job list. There are all sorts of ways to organize a "to do" list....and I've tried almost all of them at some time or another. When I was making up my newest list, I quickly jotted down a couple of headers: "things to make" and "things to do", without much thought. It was only later that I realized the main difference between the two categories are that the first list is filled with jobs that take a long time to do - making things take time - while the second list contains a lot of quick things (phone calls, printing, etc.) that just need to be done.
I should be home in time for supper on Saturday night....and my plan for the rest of the weekend will be crossing off as many things from my list as I can. I'll let you know how I make out...
