Not enough time

There is just never enough time to get everything done. By the time I get what has to be done finished, there isn't enough time to do anything I want! I have a quilt to make for my sister and it is still sitting where it was months ago. She has been very patient with me, but the baby will need a twin size before I finish it.
Like I don't have enough to do....I decide to start a blog. Which so far hasn't taken up much time. What really is time consuming is reading all the other blogs. I got to a blog....read it....then see a link...read it and so on. I spent valuable hours reading when I could have almost finished that dad blame quilt. This guilt is driving me nuts. If she would just let loose on me...then I would be OK. NO..... she has to be patient and understanding. Why OH Why!!! My daughter said she wouldn't even tell when she was having a baby until the last month.....apparently I work better under presure....Hint....Hint Marla. Just go ahead and give me the riot act. I'll find some time then. Guess I better get off here and get busy.....Dishes, Laundry and all that other stuff. Maybe tomorrow I'll make it to the sewing room. (Keep your fingers crossed)

I know what you mean, I had too much to do lately to blog, but I read everybody else's...takes a lot of time, but I really enjoy it!

And I also know what you mean about quilting. But lately, I've started projects for people and decided not to tell them, then they're not disappointed when it takes me long than they expect. Suprise!

Seems I can't spell this late at night...I meant Surprise! I gotta get to bed earlier and stop reading these darn blogs! LOL!

Found your blog....We are huge LSU fans...as son and DD in law both graduated from there. They are happily raising three little tigers. We are hoping to have many of them for the MSU LSU game next year...as it will be here in Starkville. Welcome to blog land...sometimes other things get in the way...but it sure is fun. I'll be back to check up on your progress... of good things to come.

Linking from one blog to another, to another, to another. It's SUCH fun!! And such a time vacuum.

I hear your "not enough time" lament and am doing the same right alongside you. I too seem to get more done under "just enough" pressure, but I like to call it 'inspiration'!!

Most of my blogging buddies have laptops and put them right next to their sewing machine. I think thats how they get them done. Personaly, I enjoy coffee, chocolate, and vodka to help me get to the binding stage. Good luck!
