Busy or Lazy


I feel like my life is either going 100 MPH or 2 MPH. I love being busy, the busier I am the more productive I am. If I have a day to do nothing...literally nothing will get done besides a nap and moping around about being bored...which is me not wanting to do anything I have to do, and not having anything to do that I want to do. If on the other hand I have 57 things to get done in a day, I will get those 57 things done, think of 4 other projects I want to start, and squeeze in a couple extra BONUS things accomplished. Usually my spurts of being busy or not busy go in week or month long chunks, but lately it has been more of a day by day thing.

Real Estate is NOT helping with this at all. This weekend I had the "floor" all weekend which means any general question that comes in to Keller Williams gets forwarded to my phone...well I had all kinds of calls....and they all came when I was busy. I was riding in the car for 2 hours....No calls. Out to eat with a bunch of people - call. Then I am in the dressing room trying on clothes - 2 calls! then I am ordering at a drive through - call, then I am driving with no paper or pen - call! Sitting at my house by my computer...no calls. CRAZY...anyways, these past few days have been really busy with appointments for work and other commitments which is great. I even got the laundry done, cookies made, sheets changed, and picked up around the house - when I have nothing going...you guessed it, none of this gets done.

(Duke and I are really good at being lazy together)

I have always wanted to start a non-profit called Fido's Friends, and since I have been busy lately I am getting the itch to do it again. I am coming up with a better idea of what I want it to be, so that is great. I get excited thinking about all the things it could be, organizationally what I would have to do...so exciting. Then if I am having a down moment, I am suddenly aware of all the work it would en-tale and instead of being energized by it, I am totally drained and just thinking about it makes me need a nap! So we will see where this leads me with my idea, I feel like I need to just go for it. I have been wanting to start something like this since I was about 17, so I think it's about time.

It really is always one extreme or the other. I think I am just wired that way, I don't do well with no projects to work on...hence why I always keep making projects for myself. Anyway...I'm off to work on my Fido's Friends idea....
