Life became very unbalanced this week & by Wednesday I knew exactly how the Energizer Bunny feels like when his batteries are flat. Work is no busier than normal, just everything I needed to do this week was unnecessarily complicated, involved & a pain in the you-know-whatsie! If I mention those 2 frightening words 'Software Issues', you'll get the picture. The atrocious weather here also turned MOTH into His Royal Grumpiness. As usual he's made too many promises to clients about project finish dates & now they are baying for his blood. The shower screens are being installed early Monday morning & he hasn't anywhere near completed prep. work the Installers have told him needs to be done. I get the feeling this weekend will be full of 'little' challenges - wish me luck!

Balancing Act

Hope the week ends on a positive note. (I thought the image you posted was of cheese cake)
ReplyDeleteLove ya, Heidi
Must be something in the air I think - work / life / project issues.... Good luck. You might need one of those signs: "Keep Calm and Carry On"...
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend Mills...
ReplyDeleteHope things pick up... by the way loved the comfortable shoe post.... just what I need right now..[unfortunately].... My darn internet is still a pain in the you know what ^*&^&%... and keeps dropping out on me... xxx Julie
Sorry for the bumps in your road this week. Hang in there and wishing you the best in getting things done in a timely manner.
ReplyDeleteHugs! :)
Boy do I relate to that.... and I thought that was your daily chocolate consumption!
ReplyDeleteWhy is this blog making me hungry? Does anyone else see cheesecake here?
ReplyDelete(have a great week!)
Taking Wednesdays off is the only way I can get some balance. Not great for the wallet, but terrific for the me time. Hope you have a non-frenetic weekend!
ReplyDeleteHi Millie,
ReplyDeleteBeen too long since I left a comment. Sorry 'bout that but the pie slices picture is true for me too. I am trying to find balance but it's so hard...I would just like to feel like I'm coping a bit better and not be weighed under with things on the to-do list that are JUST NOT getting done. I wish you luck this weekend and hope it goes as smoothly as possible!! Will try to comment again soon and not leave it so long...
Take care

Oh my, well Saturday's almost here! Hope all of the issues were resolved...it is just the worst when things are more difficult than they ought to be, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteHi Millie,
ReplyDeleteI wish you luck and try to take it easy. Thank you for visiting my blog. I am looking forward to following yours.

Good luck Millie, you need cake to get you through!
ReplyDeleteHopefully the weekend will bring at least some time for rest and relaxation, Millie. I agree with everyone else about the chocolate cake, by the way...
ReplyDeleteDeborah
Hope all is going well at the Hedge.
ReplyDeleteDid someone say "cocktail hour"??
Fingers crossed for you & MOTH. Meredy xo.
Wishing you a lot of luck!!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, I too see cheesecake - I am so glad the Cheesecake Factory is 90 miles away or I would be 90 pounds heavier.
it does seem to be going around.....
ReplyDeletei have over done things AGAIN.
i hope you have a mellow weekend!
