Are you too busy?


Are you too busy? I know, what a silly question. I am working hard on my my book on busyness for moms, so I thought I’d include some clues that were eye openers for me.

Top Ten Clues That I Was Too Busy…

1. My gas tank was forever on empty.

2. My kids thought all meals came with a side of fries.

3. We celebrated birthdays on the soccer field.

4. There was something horrible growing in my shower.

5. I was irritable…all…the…time.

6. A romantic night out was listening to our kids grammar school band perform Chop Sticks.

7. Quantity time had replaced quality time.

8. Chaos had become my closest companion.

9. I believed singing Jesus Take the Wheel on the way to a Girl Scout Meeting counted as my Bible study for the week.

10. I blinked and my daughter was seventeen.
