I think I do a decent job, but I know it can be better. And that the job I do could be more timely. Darn it if I'm not always late at everything.

You can F&$@ once in a while. You learn that as you get older. It's ok to miss a deadline or not write a posting one day. Just don't slip off the wagon forever. That's my fear. If I don't commit then I will never get back there again! I've learned to have more patience with myself. P.S. don't worry about reading my manuscript. You'll get to it when you get to it. I'll still love you! But you don’t have to be perfect. You can F&$@ once in a while. You learn that as you get older. It’s ok to miss a deadline or not write a posting one day.

We do what we do because it's the right thing to do. Even when it's hard. Thank goodness for people like Carol, and Jennifer, and you to remind us of that. Inspiring all the way around.

But like I noted on facebook this week, the more I try to keep up the appearance of having it all together, the more I seem to fall apart. I’m right there with you, girl!

How often do people ask YOU "How do you do it all?", or "how do you remain calm, cool, and collected?" I wasn't sure how to answer your last question of "Can I get some?" ... but it looks like you found it yourself! I'm with you ... I'm happy on this side of the fence. And I'm paddling like crazy to stay here ;-) You just answered the question you asked me a week ago.

I love people who keep their word and follow through on commitments. I have a feeling the other side of that fence could use a paint job! But we'll never know :) Beautifully expressed.
