Chipping Away


When you have an infant at home, seldom do you have more than 2 hours (at best) to spend time for yourself and maybe get to a few things you've had on your list. Right now, my husband is away on a business trip and my three month old son is in bed. Now that the house is quiet my mind is racing with things I want/need to do that I didn't have time for   during the day - give myself a mani pedi... paint the bookcase... vacum... organize the closet... call my friends... 


I know, all of these things take a back seat when you're at home with a baby. But it's hard to let it go. I'm a major multi-tasker which is probably why I'm not feeling productive. The latest scientific research shows that multi-tasking actually reduces productivity.  


I'm also on maternity leave now, so I'm trying to squeeze in all those projects I've been meaning to complete before I go back to work. 


I'll have to chip away at it one day at a time and will keep you posted.
