Enough is enough

I was talking with a friend a couple of days ago. We discussed promoting Orange Mint and Honey, writing N2, books I've read lately, work, blogging, and she said the nicest thing to me: "I don't know how you do it all." It was great to have someone recognize that I'm working hard. However, am I doing it all? No, not even close. I don't want anybody to get the wrong idea. The woman who blogs about gardening let this forest of weeds happen in the backyard. Yesterday, to get rid of one weed tree, I had to bend the trunk and jump on it!

I am blessed with a husband who does the grocery shopping and cooking, lots of yard work AND his own laundry. I am blessed with a half-time job. I'm spared the daily work of raising kids. And I still can't do it all. I still feel like I'm barely holding it together.

I try to get my work done. I try to do what's important. I try to rest and have a little fun. It's not nearly everything I should be doing, but it's plenty. It's enough.
