"I am both an overachiever and an underachiever/procrastinator" Totally Me Too! Only I think after a bit of blog hopping I have 30 new things bookmarked☺ I have so many things I just "have to do" from reading blogs I get seriously stressed out. Then I think I can never been as cool, creative, or original so maybe I'll just sit on the couch and eat some chips and salsa. On the plus side, I HAVE started to figure out I need to seriously edit and think about the volunteer commitments I make. Turns out saying no to be the preschool board's secretary next year was way easy. You should try it too and join the no club.<br /><br />PS: Seriously freaked out in the car on the ride home from the mall with ER today. She was SO ANNOYING!!! Then felt bad the whole way home. Then saw Tuesday's post.

And I already decided that I will never be a supermom - I will focus on things that I like to do and what my daughter wants to do. This gave me some sanity back :) Happy bloggiversary, by the way!Natalie PlanetSmartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531558038661679151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280913847848128325.post-38576832849219266192010-04-28T13:53:16.805-06:002010-04-28T13:53:16.805-06:00Liquid therapy!!

Girlfriend, ...Liquid therapy!! I love that term!!<br /><br />Girlfriend, I'm so right there with you! I've sworn to taking the weekends off when it comes to blogging and then by Monday morning, I actually groan at the thought of having to get back at it again. Then it occurs to me that I don't HAVE to do it. So then I step away for a few more days until I WANT to do it. I have slowed down quite a bit and I've had a hard time keeping up, to be honest.<br /><br />I like that you make lists...I do that, too. There's something wonderful about seeing all the things being crossed off one at a time!<br /><br />Just keep plugging away and getting stuff done...it'll all come together. It's all about balance, remember!!Helenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743718606624231459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280913847848128325.post-4128564901346247662010-04-27T21:53:25.763-06:002010-04-27T21:53:25.763-06:00thanks for the FF ..i hope m not too late in retur...thanks for the FF ..i hope m not too late in returning the bloggy love ..<br />and i completely agree with you on the blog browsing bit ..guess u do deserve a break ..watch a couple of hilarious movies and catch up wid ol friends ..thats def my sure shot way of unwinding ..<br />CheersPria https://www.blogger.com/profile/17757222239521759725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280913847848128325.post-70076998968304511992010-04-27T13:29:35.863-06:002010-04-27T13:29:35.863-06:00I'm a little late in the game...finally catchi...I'm a little late in the game...finally catching up from Friday Follow. i'm your newest follower.

It really can all seem like too much, but as my blog is the first thing I have done for me, myself, I in over three years since my daughter was born I am sticking with it. It's a question of balance yes, and deciding what are the things you really want to do and in which case what other things you can do without. I tell myself that I will be a better mother for having an interest other than my daughter and I really do feel better about life. <br /><br />You have a lot on your plate - much more than I do, so I understand the feelings you are having.One Photohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05793386254564806126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280913847848128325.post-89117280905985040882010-04-27T11:07:26.060-06:002010-04-27T11:07:26.060-06:00Oh boy oh boy - can I relate!

Each night at dinner, I tell my husband that I am ready to give up blogging completely. I'm done, I'm threw! I need to simplify my life. Yet, here I sit, reading and stalking blogs. I guess it is a bit of a compulsion.<br /><br />In the end, I've decided I am just going to try to limit the time I dedicate to being on-line. Baby steps, you know! <br /><br />xo<br /><br />-FrancescaMayhem and Moxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05520125461477518424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280913847848128325.post-90766306478741897382010-04-27T06:11:49.305-06:002010-04-27T06:11:49.305-06:00I'm honestly going through the same thing righ...I'm honestly going through the same thing right now.
