pushing too hard
In the last week:
•We drove over the mountains, packed up a family member and moved her and her daughter to our house.
•We cleaned out the basement, scrubbed it down, sealed it up, painted and loaded it with our haul from the days before.
•We organized our new home office, the kid’s room and toys.
•Next, we tried to help the rest of the house recover from all of it – we’re talking loads and loads of laundry and dishes.
•At Tangle, we re-arranged, labeled lots of new yarn, started preparing for the busy season ahead by putting together kits and lots and lots of gift ideas.
•I designed and sent off for printing and mailing a postcard advertising our after thanksgiving sale and new classes.
•I had two migraines and a 24 hour stomach bug. (We’re talking $50 worth of migraine meds.)
And everyday my eyes have popped open right at 6:30am with no hope of falling back asleep.
Written down in these few sentences, I can’t seem to convey the largeness of what has happened over the last week. I just can’t believe that a whole year hasn’t passed in the span of these past 7 days…
