384. Summer’s Deception

Coping with too much to do.

Summer lulls the senses into thinking having no fixed plan in your day can be fun. That's hardly the case- there's no fun finding yourself at the end of the day feeling drained and frustrated because your day has come to nothing.

Your time has been gobbled up by a thief called deception who leads you into thinking that messing about, tinkering with this and that is actually doing something- well- it isn’t… get a list.

Feel great, feel good, feel fantastic… yes, you can feel all that, but only if you have put in a stint of work to earn it. Get a list.

I want to get back to my WIP on WWII which I abandoned because I erroneously thought at the end of the day no one would be interested and I’m not such a sucker to work hard to keep something in a box in the basement for the rest of my days! I want to get back to my paints and brushes and see what images I can come up with at this point in life. Then I have the children’s summer school which also demands its share of time, energy and a cheerful disposition…


Then of course I have to clean, shop feed myself and my zoo in miniature… so how am I going to fit in those chunks of activities in my life? Just like the Chancellor of the Exchequer when planning the budget, he always has to make cuts and hence, so do I. What do I cut out of my life? Since I am in possession of a hundred and fifteen passwords… guess what’s gonna give?
