Piles, Piles, Everywhere....

These last few weeks, I feel like I have been running around being so busy yet at the same time accomplishing nothing! I did get the bushes trimmed out front last week, for the first time this year (yeah, not the best timing, but at least we don't have a forest in front of the porch now!) and got poison ivy in the process. In November. *sigh* And we've had food to eat, we've been spending our Saturday afternoons out driving, I've been finishing my Bible study, there have been a couple of doctor/eye appointments, but it seems everything else has slid to the back burner. I'll write about some of that later. But today, until DD wakes up and off we go in the car, I need to concentrate on the piles of STUFF scattered here and there. I have 5 piles of papers and ads and "to do" just here in the dining room! That doesn't include the 2 piles of "to do" in the bedroom or the "I don't know what to do with it" basket in the living room or the *kinda small* stack of dishes or the 4, maybe 5, sorted laundry piles that have to, have to, HAVE TO get done today! I'm also praying that I can start being a better steward of the time that God has alloted to me each day. I know me. I know I through through phases every year where I'm on top of stuff one week and the next week there is absolutely no motivation to do anything, but at my age :-), I need to learn to push through those "no motivation" times. Hopefully today will get me back on track!
