Told you so

It's just before 9am on a Wednesday, and I am finishing my breakfast and tea. I've already billed 37 hours this week and there is no reason to think my week will slow down any. My in-laws arrive tomorrow for a 2 week visit, my college friends that I never get to see are visiting in a week, and a childhood friend is getting married this Saturday. I don't have enough hours in the day to do all the work that's been assigned to me, and I certainly don't have time to do the work, sleep and keep these all of these social obligations.

Timmy has another cold which I got this time (probably due to a complete lack of sleep on my part) and my eyes burn because they're tired. While it stresses me out to constantly feel behind and inadequate at balancing all the things that matter, I'm not unhappy. I would take this over being consistently slow any day. Seriously. Isn't it crazy how fast the tides can turn?

In-laws arriving for a 2 week visit?!?!? You have my deepest sympathy! ;-)

I too am buried under a pile of work. That always happens when you go on vacation.
