This should actually be written and read (too) short, because everything “too” stands for is not good.

For example; too much sugar, too much salt, too many goodies, too fat, too thin, too high cholesterol and too few hours in a day. The latter is currently under discussion.

The days fly by, even though I get up early every day in the last few weeks. It breaks me up, I feel like a flying keep or even better a juggler who has to hold all the balls up. Two households, it's disappointing and then getting this, getting that, shopping, animals sick, vet and yes, the dog also wants to see a different place than what he sees every day, just like my mom.

Last weekend, my mother asked if I had a boyfriend and looked at the vacuum cleaner, and I said, “Yes, two, namely a blue one and a red one.“Oh well, we're just laughing about it, what else should we do? Mom's long-haired dog in moulting and my cat in moulting, which means that a vacuum cleaner has to go through the house at least four to five times a week, so two houses! A household doesn't just consist of vacuuming, there are so many chores to do. I'm behind, both here and there. So a shortage of time!

My body is starting to sputter, it's not going so fast anymore. The hours are ticking and before I know it, another day is over, with the feeling that I have failed. This has to be different, just how is the question? More rest? It's not in my nature. I can't sit still and watch it all go down. One day a week is my day and that's Monday, tick day column and household here.

I've been retired for years so here's nothing should be allowed. I sometimes think how did I do it all, but then you just did it.
I recognize the feeling, I was also in that rat race. But then there was a major operation and suddenly I had plenty of time, just no opportunities to do anything with it !
You may keep this up for a while, but not a long (er) period, I think. Strength! Think about yourself.
