Wait for it. Here it comes.
That's right. We had a repeat week. I started out with high hopes and the week flopped. Weep!
Two problems? The time change and people "needed" me.
I'm seriously struggling with the conflict between how I want to spend my time and how other people want to spend my time (age old battle). I know that none of this week's interruptions were intentional. I don't see how I would have changed anything, but I feel discouraged when the end result is the same week after week. So discouraged.
Monday - the most productive day.
Tuesday - the day was cut short by an hour-and-a-half because of a last minute baby sitting request. And yes, an hour-and-a-half makes a big difference.
Wednesday -
Thursday - just when we were picking up steam, I had to make an "emergency" trip into town which ate up a couple of hours.
