My Life, As Told Between (Baby Cakes') Naps

Please Mop Up This Mess

Please Mop Up This Mess

This is not a tidy job.  It frequently spills over into other aspects of my life.  As much as I try to keep it contained, things just keep spilling over.

I was thinking earlier this week that (1) I complain entirely too much about my job (which I actually oftentimes enjoy) and my life (what little I can squeeze in between my work), (2) I am going to be more efficient and not kill all of my weekends, and (3) I should post about things I’m thankful for (believe it or not, I’m generally a very happy, almost irritatingly upbeat person). . . but then I got a load of work yesterday (all urgent), a request (albeit a very nice one) to work this weekend from a partner who does not realize I’ve been working virtually EVERY weekend, and a gentle reminder to keep my hours up (despite the fact that I work all the time, I think I’m particularly inefficient because my hours are average at best).  So yeah, no warm and fuzzy post today.  Just more ranting.
