It was a chaotic weekend with barely any time to work. Both mornings, kids got up ridiculously early, cutting off my work partway and not leaving me time to blog about the progress. That really tells you everything you need to know about the progress itself. And now, it’s Monday, and I’m back to my hellish day job and the ongoing crisis situation.
My motivation is extremely low right now and I’m feeling constantly exhausted. Both work and home are draining me and, as much as I want this writing career to be a ticket away from the day job, I don’t have the energy to focus on it now. I seriously cannot imagine how other authors with families and jobs do it. Something – or someone – is always demanding my attention and mental energy, as well as my physical action.
Meanwhile it feels like tasks keep building up and I never have time to even begin half of them. Both home and work. I never have a moment of peace.
I need to figure out a way to create peace in this situation. I can’t wait for someone else to give it to me. But to do that, I need some organization and prioritization. And where am I going to find time for that?
