N is for Not a yellow brick road

Ever feel like your traveling through life at the speed of light? You can't catch up on anything?

Writing. Work. Family. Blogging.

How does one balance it all out? Is there an order in which you are to best level each section of your life out? It's so much easier on paper isn't it?

Well I'm not an expert and since every life is different there is no one answer as to how to make your life easier. After all this is not a yellow brick road to your freedom. I separate how I see fit.

This is normally how it works.

Work. Happens every day. As much as I'd love to let go it pays my bills. So 40 hours is dedicated to that. Not changing unless I win the lottery (for right now).

Family. This one is a little easier to maintain. With my husband in school I get extra time to myself and we dedicate the weekends to the fun zone!

Writing. I write every day, even if it's something as simple as fun and thought out email, a poem, or something in my journal. Every day you should write something. You are a writer after all.

Blogging. Posts are scheduled on Sundays. During the week I comment. Sometimes I just lurk. This is the one that so often takes the back burner. Though I hate to do it, my life is far to hectic sometimes and this must be downsized.

So how do you cope? What order is your life in?
