Pop-up Whine (not book-related)

I allow myself 30 minutes each morning for blogging. That includes posting my own, and reading and commenting on yours. I have a list that starts at 6:30 each morning with grooming my dogs, followed by an hour of gardening, blah, blah, blah until 7:00 at night. I only have 30 minutes for this, and I still can't get everything done that needs doing. When am I going to start to write again? I miss writing! How does everyone else in the world find time to do stuff? How did I get anything done when I worked in an office full-time. If I'm so busy, why am I so poor? (The mock-president of the USA has more time to tweet FFS, than I have to spend on my friends' blogs.)

    Yes.

    Note that I blog every day now but during the school year I was sheepishly absent...I am going to try hard not to disappear mid-august.

    When you find the answers to your questions, please let me know... I have the same issues and feel incompetent and inefficient pretty much 24/7.

    Yes! My friends who are full-time workers can't understand me when I say I can never finish my to-do list.

    I understand. When I am working, I tend to get more done than when I am not working, although I long for the days when I don't have to earn money and can do what I want to do, I know that I will get less done. Or it will feel that way.

    I'm falling behind again too. Friends have agreed with me that we seemed to get more done at home when we had jobs outside the home. I think the job forces us to be more efficient and (gasp!) organized in general.

      I'm afraid I'm the exception to that rule, then.
