Good Weather Guilt

Busy! Busy! Trying to keep up with both artwork, gardening, reading and blogging and I haven't done well with any of them. Keeping up that is... Spring time always makes me feel a bit overwhelmed. So many things to do. I always feel that if it's a beautiful day, I should be outside working even though I have loads of things to do inside. It just dawned on me the other day that the only one expecting me to be outside in the garden all day is-me! I mean how silly is that? I don't have to spend ALL day gardening. I can parcel my day out like I have been doing all winter. I think I've been treating myself like a child. Scolding myself saying what all mothers tell their children on sunny days, "It's a beautiful day! Go outside! Stop a. sitting in front of the computer/TV, or b. stop reading."That mom guilt lasts a long time. So this is what I have done.
I have finally planted my tomato seeds. They are several weeks late but I think they will catch up in the end. I have done the extra credit drawing of Jonathan Rhys Meyers as King Henry and as a bonus-seriously disturbed daughter #4 who now thinks I have a crush on him. I have finished reading Coupon Mom (got to get those deals!) and a young adult novel called The Roar. And here I am typing a post, so I guess I am making headway. Now I just have to remember to put in cooking, cleaning, and work. LOL!
Good King Hottie...er...Henry
