February 23

The marathon of my life continues. A bunch of people backed out of tonight’s church class (that I’m leading) at the last minute and I was so exhausted, I just wanted to cancel it. But there wasn’t enough time to let everyone know before it started. So I went reluctantly and said I’d just plod through. In the end, it was a really good class and I left feeling more energized than I went in (which admittedly wasn’t so hard). As much as I complain about being overwhelmingly busy, I guess it’s good that I am busy. I feel more motivated to do even more things, like get some of my writing published and maybe even make that lucrative enough to quit my “temp” job that I’ve been in for almost 17 years and have never enjoyed. Of course that means I have to write and I have to find publishers who might like my writing, which means even more work, but I guess I might as well ride this motivation wave for as long as it lasts.
