Who is stealing all my time??!!

Sitting here on the eve of another work week, I realize that there are still so many things that I didn't get done on these three days off. The penguin fleece remains on my dining room table, awaiting the pinning or cutting or any other attention that might someday result in their transformation into pajama pants for my daughter. I never did get around to making the bread I was going to, and I still need to find the TV antenna in the myriad of boxes in my garage. And the grocery shopping fell by the wayside, too.

I spent most of my days off at some type of Taekwondo function, trying to find an activity that will build discipline and focus in my flitting and disorganized child. Don't get me wrong, she is beautiful and intelligent and kind; however, she reminds me of a raccoon, getting distracted when something shiny catches her eye. So for the next week and a half, she will be training in Taekwondo under a trial program. Assuming she does well (which she appears to be already), then we'll be pinching pennies to send her to the 6 month program that will end with an orange belt in Taekwondo. I'm afraid to ask how much it might cost after that 6 month program, whereby she would enter into the Black Belt Club and begin working toward her black belt. I pray I don't regret this in three to four months, because there are a lot of things that I could do with this money besides indulge her most recent fancy. And I'm really going to miss sleeping in/lounging around on days off, since we'll be taking her to classes during 2 of those days, accompanied by church services on the 3rd day. Ugh. Some days I wonder about me....

I'm going to sign off now, and work on my CEN test prep for a bit before I head off to bed. We're all getting baptised at services tomorrow, so I have to be a little more bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. Can't wait for next week, where I don't have to work on the same day I go to church. This was a really random post...maybe I'll have a more cohesive topic to write on next time. And hopefully it will be sooner than a month from now. Guess I just haven't had the time. :)
