Work vs Play

20130411-164828.jpg

There are times when I have so much to do, but I really don’t feel like doing it.  Today was one of those days.

I didn’t feel like making the calls or sending the emails, but I knew what I had to do.  When times like this arise, I have to do the same and arise to the occasion.  I decided to encourage myself.

I cannot play if I do not work.  I decided to work as hard as I possibly could at 5 1/2 months pregnant and with 3 children.  Then I would allow myself to play.  Play for me equals making a new journal and reading the book that I just got from the library.

Someone may be thinking that I’m crazy, but that’s what I really want to do…So, I’m off to get some more work done that way I can play.
