Yes, that would be me the past few weeks!

It has been crazy here. And having the Chinese New Year break has not made it any easier. Schedules are disrupted, children are cranky from too much junk food and too little outdoor play. Dad and mom are plain tired.

While catching up with friends and family is nice, it also means that daily chores and erands have not been accomplished. So then we play catch up! Catch up on laundry, catch up on dusting, mopping, vacuuming, packing, de-cluttering, putting up stuff For Sale.....I think the only thing that we will never be able to catch up with is sleep!!! 

Then there was the big transfer and reformatting of Building Up Moms website. That took up a lof of time!

A headless chicken, yes that would be me!  I absolutely loathe it but can't seem to help it. Coz the moment I am awake, I am running to get things caught up. But I am plain tired. And gorging on those New Year goodies (my aunt's pineapple tarts are my downfall!!!) have done little to boost energy levels. All I get is the rush and utlimate crash of too much carb and sugar injection into the system. Bleh! When will I learn to eat healthily instead of just going for what tastes good?!

We start school on Monday (18th February) and that means I cannot afford to run around like a headless chicken anymore. Otherwise things are going to unravel even faster!

This is my game plan - sit down and be still before the Lord and start planning!!!

To function normally, I need 2 basic plans : Lesson Plans and Menu Plans. So guess what I'll be rushing to get ready this weekend?  Pray, pray, pray. Plan, plan, plan. Now if only the baby will let me focus for 3hrs straight - ha!
