I’ve been a bit blogfree recently both in reading everyone elses and in posting my own – this is a very busy time of year. However I have missed it greatly. Just the process of writing is very clarifying to a muddled mind.
As usual it is the issue of TOO MANY THINGS TO DO that causes the major cockup. Today as a result of a frantic week, I blundered big time and completely forgot that my daughter’s friend was supposed to be coming over to ‘hang out’ (teenagers) this afternoon whilst her parents were at a wedding. In my franticity of trying to do 1001 things all at the same time in the 2minutes I had spare, I happily agreed to the arrangement (she’s a lovely girl) on the Monday, then promptly forgot all about it. Until tonight at 7.30 when her mother called to ask where she was. Oh dear.
Anyway, a happy end to the story was that her granny saved the day (hurrah for lovely grannies) but the moral of the story is……….
(please repeat my mantra – I am getting it tattooed on Monday)
LESS IS MORE (and write things down)(and remember to look at the list)
and this mostly applies to my work; how I make and how I describe it – enough said.
(with thanks to Emily Speed – for reminding me of this again – in pt. 2 of my LIFE CHANGING REview bursary)
