If I looked back through my ten plus years of posts here, I’m sure I would find plenty that talk about my being behind on posting and lots of other things.
Even though I’ve tried to pair down on my commitments, I never seem to be caught up.
Dealing with my health over these last ten months, things have gotten way worse. I feel like I am only handling about a third of what I used to do – and, some days, not even that.
I’ve cut out a lot of tasks, assuming I would get back to them when I was better.
Now, I wonder if these cuts will be permanent…
At some point, if I re-define what I should be doing, maybe I won’t be behind anymore.
That would be novel…

Linda’s prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday this week is “in front/behind.” This post also is part of Just Jot It January. Find out more here: https://lindaghill.com/2025/01/03/the-friday-reminder-for-socs-jusjojan-2025-daily-prompt-for-jan-4th/


This must be frustrating to say the least. Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever be completely caught up. My goal right now is to get through the pile of papers on the table, but I’ll very likely be moving the pile when we get company. Don’t worry about getting caught up and focus on priorities, including your health. I hope you find moments of joy.

Thanks, JoAnna. Yes, you are right, of course, that priorities are vital in all this. I admit that it’s been hard to find joy these days but I will be on the lookout.

There is my impression, which is you get more done than most people even when you are behind. So the bar may be quite high for you. I hope you get to the point where you feel in control of what you can and can’t do.

Thanks, Ellen. Maybe if I can get to the point where I don’t need to spend most of the afternoon lying down…
