I think I say this all the time, but Kal Barteski is one of my heroes. Actually, I think she might be a super-hero. She is one of those people that does more in a day than I do in a week. I read her blog and my mind just boggles by how much she gets done and still has time to fully enjoy family and friends. And be totally kick-ass all at once.
I have a somewhat unformed notion about trying to live the life I want. And this involves being kinda kick-ass, having time to enjoy my life, and not being embarrassed when family and friends come to visit. This was pretty overwhelming before, but having a baby around sort of compounds things. After all, he is totally awesome and tends to lure family and friends over. Plus, I’d much rather look at him/play with him than just about anything else. And as we have not managed to arrive at a comfort zone with either the baby wrap or the sling, he isn’t always conducive to multi-tasking.
So I am reaching the point where letting certain tasks go and not worrying about them because I get to focus on the baby isn’t quite working anymore. So yesterday I decided to just pick one thing and try to accomplish that. Just one teeny-tiny thing a day. Surely that is possible. Today’s thing: stopping by the apartment and grabbing the cleaning solution that I am pretty sure is going to change my life*. Put pictures in frames and put them on the mantle. I miss my boy too much to not go right home.
*I know it won’t, but someone said it will help. I’ve got my hopes up.
