Too much to do, too little time

[rangersyl]

Sometimes I get so busy, I get all wrapped in in FEELING busy that I don't get anything done. Now is one of those times. Argh.

Work is nuts... I'm supervising at the airport office. It's challenging and rewarding, and yet totally nuts. Ten people, three different offices spread out over the metro area. And one problem person. One. Who is driving me batty. Batty I tell you.

Anyway. I don't like the stress. And then if I get back to 'normal' work, I get bored. Can someone explain this??????

So I'm home, and I feel like there's a ton of stuff I'm supposed to do, feel obligated to do, suffer subliminal stress from not doing. And then I can't get myself to look at any of it.

Fed up, I pulled out a coping mechanism that given my ISTJ self should be obvious. I made a list. Of things I wanted to do, versus things I feel I should do. The 'should' list was 16 items long. The 'want' list was one. Sleep.

So, thereby organized, I finalized 6 items, and did intermediate steps with 4. The others will have to wait.

Curiously, I feel better. Still nutty, but at least not stuck in a quagmire.

Oh, do I know that feeling. *sigh*

But did you sleep? :)

I understand being busy. ::wince:: Sleep! Glad to know that you've just been going crazy//nuts over work and that I didn't freak you out with another epic over on SD-1

Take care,

Oh you most assuredly did NOT freak me out :) I've wanted to take the time to compose a proper and thoughtful reply, which unfortunately, I'm too frazzled to do. I've got it on my PDA, though, so if I get some downtime at work I hope to work on a response.
