how did I get here?

I don't know how it happens, but somehow everyday manages to turn into a marathon. Between showering, exercise, practicing, homework, cooking, cleaning, playing with the cat, etc, etc - it's just non-stop. Sure, many of those things aren't necessarily the average definition of stressful, but knowing that there are endless things I want to accomplish in a day makes everything feel stressful. I like all those things. I look forward to cooking a real meal, to running, to practicing. But the fact that there are those many things that don't get written on the to-do list, and therefore can't be crossed off at the end of the day make me feel as if I've accomplished nothing.

Maybe I'll start writing every detail of my day down so I feel productive.

Today:
7:30 woke
7:30-8:00 human contact
8:00-8:15 cat contact
8:15-8:45 began slow cooker meal
8:45-9:30 shower and getting pretty
9:30-10:00 homework for Friday and breakfast
10:00-10:30 finish dinner in slow cooker and dishes
10:30-11:00 email and day planning
11:00-11:45 errands (including but not limited to Kinko's and Post Office)
11:45-1:00 learning to be SAI treasurer over lunch
1:00-2:15 practicing
2:15-3:45 lecture on importance of local food
3:45-4:30 practice
4:30-5:30 rehearsal
5:30-6:30 dinner
6:30-7:00 practice
7:00-9:00 running and yoga
9:00-10:00 practice
10:00-11:00 shower and getting organized for tomorrow

rinse.
repeat.

invigorating, no?
