Where has time flown?

To help pay for college, I waited tables during the summer.

Carrying one or two plates wasn’t a problem. Three to four plates, I could do it. Five or more, I would start to stress. There were several occasions I had to carry a tray with eight plates.
And there were several times, I lost balance of the tray only to watch in panic as the plates slid off the tray, crashed on the floor and food flew in every direction. Yes, it was embarrassing but mostly I felt terrible because the lunch guests had to wait even longer for their lunch.

After this happened one busy lunch rush, I recall taking an order from a five businessmen.
“Can we trust you to get our food to us and on the table or will it end up on the floor,” a man sarcastically asked.

It’s been 20 days since I wrote a post for my blog and I am feeling like I dropped a tray of food on the floor.
It seems the more I try to add to my life, the more I tend to drop something. With responsibilities at work, for my family, sharing the computer with my children and husband and sheer exhaustion, I haven’t had the time to write or exercise. I am only working out twice a week.

What I am trying to figure out is how to do it all with dropping something. There’s so much on my do to list that I really want to do but I haven’t figured out how to do it all.
Any suggestions?

    Can't argue with logic!
