Just busy

David often says I'm the busiest person in the world.

I don't think he's right. But Non says for women with two kids and a great job, in my age group, I'm probably THE busiest.

Since late February, it's been crazy. My to-do-list is just getting longer. It's not chores I'm talking about. It's big issues like Dan's school place (lost appeal, now writing to ombudsperson to get the decision reversed due to a cockup in the way the council administered the process), getting prepared for a board (yet another failure, although a sweet one) and sorting out finances (a bad one).

And the moment I tackle one issue, another three pops up in its place. It's like the dragon in a Hungarian folk tale -- you cut off one of the seven heads, only to see three others sprouting out straightway. Or is it not a folk tale?

So big issues with never ending chores -- 24 hours never feels long enough.

On a positive note, I've stepped up a gear in my running, and feeling very fit. I now do 45 mins twice week, and love it. My first semi-marathon is in sight!
