At a time I can reflect, not rush...

I feel it's important to write when I'm home, now. So much better as a matter of fact, gosh! Time management is an ongoing task for me, it always has been. Being late is never an issue, I am too consciences. But the struggle of getting there, oy! Are many others are like this? Things seem doable at the time, so I often say "yes."  If I take on an activity to reciprocate, like subbing a class for someone who has subbed for me- that is one thing. 

Other times I somehow ignore my effort. I randomly realized this 3 years ago when I made an appointment for my daughter. I would need to scurry to pick her up at 2:00 (my free time), take her to her to the appointment, then we could both call it a day, no big deal. Scurry to pick her up? Why? Because the office had a 3:00 opening. Alternatively, she could take the bus home, saving me a total 20 minutes, arriving at 3:30 and not miss school. On top of that, I wouldn't need to contact the school to announce on the speaker "daughter, be ready at 2:00, your mom is picking you up." It dawned on me, yay! I hadn't bothered to "trouble" the appointment desk for  later available times. Sure enough, there was a later opening. Yes, dinner time, maybe. So what!  

To accomplish things, I habitually think, "ya gotta get off your butt." That often proceeds to running myself ragged. If the end result leads to very important things... helping to make me a more available person, all is worth it. Otherwise and at the same time, constant arranging and rearranging the schedule seems like a good priority.
