[quote=Anonymous]I am a "crazy busy" person and I agree with much of what OP and some of the other PPs have said.  It CAN be tough to get it all done when you are juggling a very demanding job that will take every second you give it (the joke around our office is "the reward for good work is more work"), two kids who need a lot, and stuff around the house.  I have a lot of help but also have a DH with even worse hours who travels constantly.  I won't be able to solve everything by simple time management steps, but I have realized that some of this is self-inflicted.  My New Year's resolution was to learn to say no to things I didn't really, really want to do.  I've turned dow a few things now and am wrapping up things I committed to last year, and it feels great.  People always say to me, "How do you do it all?" and how they admire me and blah blah blah.  I don't want to be admired.  I want to be SANE. I look forward to achieving more of the non-crazy bliss the PPs have mentioned, and I do think they and the OP are right on this.[/quote]
