I find myself still in unable to get motivated mode. Fortunately, lots of people have been wanting Reiki and coming to Yoga so I've been crazy busy. Trouble is, when I'm not crazy busy I have trouble making myself crazy busy. You know?
The concept of my work distracting me from my work is silly. It's that putting on this hat and that hat thing. My to do list is never gonna to be a done list. It's interesting that I used to be able to manage a 25 person office and know on any given day what was in any persons to do list and now I can't even FIND my own list. This old age absentmindedness combined with the hormonal silliness (don't EVEN get me started) combined with all the electronic hoo ha to take care of and my parenting now spread all over the country (umm, ok, slight exaggeration) and the "go with the flow" lifestyle that yoga and meditation are so good at producing has made it extremely difficult for me to complete a single task completely.
You know the drill. You sit down to check your mail, which can be an all day thing somedays just trying to respond to all the email and blogs and comments but sooner or later you have to eat and you notice there is no food so you go to the store but while you are looking for your purse you realize you haven't been to the bank so you need to get your deposit ready but when you pull the drawer with all your banking stuff you realize it is stuffed with well.... stuff... so it is in immediate need of being organized so you begin that but just as you are surrounded with 25 piles of well.... stuff... you get a phone call that you MUST take that ends up being an hour long and you find yourself doing laundry and washing dishes but just as you get the piles of laundry sorted you realize it's time for your next class so you leave the whole big mess to teach which completely chills you out and then you come home and need to just check your mail real quick which turns into a quick glance at Facebook and the next thing you know 2 hours has passed while you are desperately trying to save the rainforest by taking care of everyones green patch and oh my lordy, it's time for dinner. But you never made it to the store... so it looks like it's gonna be pizza which reminds you that you REALLY need to work out so you begin to put your exercise clothes on but you didn't get to do the laundry so you don't have any clean ones and ewww, who is gonna exercise in previously exercised in clothes? so you go back to the utility room to finish the laundry but guess what? Of course, there's no laundry detergent. And you never went to the store. So you decide to make a list. Which brings you back to the drawer... and you see the piles of unorganized stuff and you feel overwhelmed so you decide maybe gardening would clear your mind...
So. Um...Honey? That's why the house and yard look the way they do.
But I don't have time to take care of it right now cause I have to make some new eye pillows cause I promised Fabian House I would get them there today. Or tomorrow. Sigh.

Lions and Tigers and Bears, OH MY!
Inhale and Exhale and Breathe!
I think we are related. Sounds very familiar.
It's like getting pecked to death by baby ducks. The little things pile up to overwhelm me more than any crisis.
I feel like I have the same problems, just different baby ducks pecking at me. And yes, the yoga does chill me out.. I just can't seem to get there often enough! :-)
