This is how I feel right now. Brain dead. Wiped out. Not firing on all cylinders. I have never been the best at dealing with too many decisions and too much stress at the same time. What I should do is make a list of everything that needs to get done and then just start crossing things off one at a time. What I actually do is refuse to do anything and eat a lot of peanut m&m's and hope that everything will sort itself out. This is the reason why I was the first person done with my chemistry final in college and also the reason why my professor suggested that I might want to look at majoring in something other than biochemistry. This is also the reason why my blog has been less than stellar this past week. My brain is in shut down mode.
Right now, I'm trying to juggle the following:
- packing up my house just enough to make it look organized for potential buyers but not so much that we can't live in it.
- cleaning my house (woefully behind on this one)
- continuing to take care of my family
- trying to design a kitchen - should the stove and the sink be close together or should the fridge be next to the sink? why are corner cupboards so terribly awkward? drawers or cabinets?
- helping my child learn to stay in his room during bedtime
- keeping up with my other responsibilities
And so next week, as a special treat for myself and in honor of the holiday, I've decided that I'm not going to blog about children or moving or kitchens or anything else related to my life as it stands right now. Instead, I'm going to take a break and spend the week writing about some of my misadventures from my time in Indonesia. And hopefully by the end of next week I'll be feeling a little less like Homer and a little more like myself. Just thought I'd warn you.
