After my long rant last night about how few hours there are in a day, I came home tonight and played Go Fish with my son until it was time for dinner. I'm just now sitting in front of the computer to write with only a few minutes left before he's ready for bed and it's time for me to read him to sleep.
Despite all of my frustration last night, when I spent an hour filling out paperwork and ended up with only a half hour to write before I was falling asleep at the computer, I'm glad I opted for Go Fish tonight instead of Go Write.
However, I do have two disclosures to make. First, I did stop between games of Go Fish to check my e-mail. Second, I should have a little extra writing time tonight, because Jack is going to bed early tonight, since he spent the day with his grandma and didn't take a nap.
But while I often feel like I'm doing so many things at once that I'm doing none of them well, I do have one recent accomplishment for which I am very proud. Jack is finally potty-trained.
Now, we do have accidents still and the nighttime potty-training is a rocky road, but we're doing so well during the day that I returned a box of Pull-ups to the store that we no longer need. So, my husband and I have managed to accomplish something during our limited time away from work. I'll take progress wherever I can get it.
