I Think I Can.... I Think I Can.... I Think I Can...

The problem with starting the week at full speed and accomplishing much the first day...

Is that by the time one gets to near the end of the week one starts to lose steam...

And really, when on Tuesday one has done 6 loads of laundry, including the sheets from all the beds in the house, and when all the beds in the house have been remade with freshly laundered sheets, and all the Christmas paraphernalia has been sadly and carefully packed away and carried to the storage room under the stairs, and the whole main floor has been vacuumed, and three meals have been prepared and cleaned up...

And when on Wednesday one has cleaned the bathrooms that one didn't get to on Tuesday, and has spent the afternoon setting up bank accounts and talking high finance with people in the know...

Well,

By Thursday morning one really doesn't have a lot of ambition beyond pouring another cup of tea and checking one's email and Faceboook Scrabble games.

And really,

It's easy to justify a bit of sloth when one has worked hard for the two preceding days.

Yes...

I think...

Maybe tidy up from Micah's breakfast, sick the hot brush on my hair, pursue that tentative tea date, and then post the Coffee Cake recipe that I was twigging last night...

Whoo-ooo..... chugga-chugga-chugga-chugga.... Keep on track, now...
