Doing too much...




I am having trouble that a lot of people have. I am trying to do TOO much, but I don't know another way to be. It was different when I was going to a job. I worked a lot of hours because I felt pressured to get it all done, but when I came home, I didn't have to do my "work" from the job. Now that home life and job life is the same, I find myself spending more time working. For example, it may look like I am playing on the computer, bu I am actually working. I am running the Ebay business which right now is over 150 listings. It fluctuates between 150 and 220 listings per week. People that are Ebayers know what I am talking about. Then, I am, also, running my book business that is at least 100 books a month sold (that means packing them and shipping them out). Then, who can forget the kids: From 6AM until 5:30 PM, I am watching anywhere from 2 kids to 8 kids- Monday through Sunday morning... It varies depending on the care that each parent needs. Of course, there is also the mystery shopping that we are still doing. LeCount does most of the shops now that I am so booked. You would think we would have all kinds of money, since we are working non-stop... Everyone knows that is not the case- we just have to work harder for the money than we did before the lay offs. Whew! I am so tired! I have to get to bed now. I wore myself out just talking about work :0)
