Start of a New Week

Another Monday looms menacing ahead of us.  I keep wondering how to make this week more productive than last, difficult given that the tasks often far outweigh the energy.  I'm going to start by going to the gym, first thing, which should prevent me from procrastinating, and should ensure that I skip the Baileys in my coffee after I drop the kids at school. 

Being a stay-at-home mom/aspiring writer sounds so much less time consuming that it is actually tuning out to be, and the pay sucks.  The benefits overall however are astounding, and include several hours in a row of straight solitude per day, during which I am under no obligation to speak to anyone.  The silence alone is worth the cut in pay.
