Counting the Days

Commitment.  That is my word for this year.  But lately I think maybe I should be committed! Its no secret that my mother drives me nuts.  The hardest part about that is she's mom and needs to be taken care of.  But its time to work on a better balance.

There's a lot of talk about work/life balance, and it wasn't very good when I worked.  But I'm not even into a year of my retirement and already having balance issues between caring for mom and caring for me. 

So I have to work on that.  I need to draw a few lines and keep my time as my time.  As a matter of habit, I would head for mom's, having an hour before I needed to pick up MrZ.  I am going to begin decreasing that to 30 minutes, or less. Emphasis on less.  

There's only 22 days until school let's out.  That should leave more time for me! So I am counting the days!
