After work, getting the shopping in and cooking, or going out with friends, I feel I have a duty to catch up with friends I don't see during the week, and family too. Chores and jobs to do, messages and what with Christmas coming up, it seems the day passes before I even can blink. Do you feel the same way?

Good God, yes!

A day should be like 35 hours long.

And nights should be 35 hours long too.

MissMe said:

Yes!!

I also think there should be a 3-day weekend should be every week

MissMe said:

I've been where you are and I must say that you sound like you need to manage your time better and put things that are first to you, where they belong...first. You wont feel this way if you master that. Without planning, a longer day would also just be more wasted time on things that are not your passion.

Yes, and I especially hate the fact that it is dark by 5:30 pm!! I need more daylight hours!

where would housework be on the list? I simply don't have time for it, nor the inclination

When I was younger, I thought the days were too short, too. Not so anymore.

But here in the winter time I think the days are too short because it gets dark so early.

I guess cleaning your house before it gets soo dirty that people wipe their feet as they're leaving your home

(and since my last post, I vacuumed my desk can you believe it!!!! )

ZombieKitten said:

I dont know if the 3 second rule would apply in your house if you make a distinction. Hmmmmm....think of a dustbunny tumbleweed...drop a gummybear, pick up a sculpture.

ZombieKitten said:

You should really stop using your sleeves for booger rags

paintedlady said:

I don't! I just use my bare arms

ZombieKitten said:

EEWWW... arm crust
Just can't stay away from the org can't cha?

paintedlady said:

that's right. I'm orging from the supermarket right now, I hacked into a cash register

ZombieKitten said:

I am in total agreeance with you. I always feel like there is never enough time in a day to do all that needs to be done. My problem is that I end up stressing myself out and burn the candle at both ends. I think I'm coming down with a cold due to it all. It seems like I never can get any "me" time in a day either. When I do make time for "me," I end up feeling guilty because I know that time could've been used to do something else that needs to get done.

a little laughter everyday will keep you in better spirits that you have to face and even place all things coming at you in better perspective. Don't make yourself sick with stress... keep a funny friend close by to keep you laughing

paintedlady said:

I misread that as furry and I was just thinking cuddling a bunny would be quite nice good for lowering blood pressure on stressy days

ZombieKitten said:

highjacked register in aisle 3....all customers please move to the express line

ZombieKitten said:

rabbits are the best thing for stress!!

furry bunnies are cute too....until they chew up the cords to your stereo equipment

paintedlady said:

did I tell you batteries were on special at the supermarket! I got a bulk pack

ZombieKitten said:

Staying stocked on batteries....DATSA MY GIRL! Using plug in wall units this time of year might cause fuses to blow
