Balance?

Right now I am struggling to find balance between housework, business related work (which is AT home, making things doubly harder) and garden, plus the FUN things that I really want to do (like scrapping! etc). I haven't included the kids in that, because they are around me pretty much all of the time, so they just have to fit into whatever I have to do.

I guess it is stressing me at the moment because I am way behind in washing and folding and keeping the place in any sort of order, but also have hours and hours of office work that really, really needs my attention, and should have had it before now. I also have a dilemma - do I do a little bit of each every day, or do I leap in and just focus one of the tasks until it is done - but then I have even more to catch up on after (especially the dirty washing, which is apparently breeding!)

Anyhow, all this is is why I probably won't post much in the next little while (unless I am procrastinating, which has been known to happen) as I have a few office deadlines that I need to meet. Hopefully I will find time to do Nicole's sketch challenge....perhaps...

But, I do have stories to share, so stay tuned...one of which involves CAMPING. Yep, camping by the river we went fishing at a few weeks ago, this past weekeind. Camping, as in sleeping on the ground (albeit in swags, in a tent) in the middle of winter. Camping, as digging a hole when needing to go to the toilet. Well, really, a big hole was dug, and someone brought along a fancy smancy folding and highly unstable toilet seat on legs (making toilet visits QUITE interesting!) but still, it was all outdoors. I could go on, but I think you get the picture - it wasn't really my idea, but it was quite comfortable given all of the crap that we all took (my husband's brothers and their families, and us) - AND I even had a hot shower, so what do I have to whinge about?! I took lots of photos...

I'll leave you with the catch of they day...
