I Feel Overwhelmed

I am single, running my own home and I never seem to be done. Every single weekend , i have a list of chores to get done. And of course, I never get done. One chore begets another so I decided to take a week off and try to get ahead of the game.

Do you ever feel that way?

I am retired and I cannot get ahead of the game. I believe that we find things to "improve" whenever we start to get caught up. It has often been said that nature abhors a vacuum and thus we find ways to fill our days. The best we can do is to prioritize the time for ourselves. Taking the time to visit friends, to travel, to nuture our souls.

@jim44444: jim, i have a hard time relaxing when stuff needs to be done. it makes me feel guilty. the only way i can totally relax stress free is when i travel.
