Something's got to give...

Had an interesting conversation with a friend this week. She wanted to know what gives. Fair question and one I'd not really thought about before. I just try to juggle all the balls, but some days I drop the red ones, other days it's the green and so on. But when I really thought about it I guess there are some balls I drop more often than others - housework, watching TV and generally chilling out. Luckily I've always been able to happily ignore housework - it'll still be standing when I'm not. I like the phrase about a tidy house reflecting a dull life, or something along those lines!  As for doing coffee with friends, nights out and feet up in front of the TV - do I miss it? No, not really, it's not like I never do it, just not as often as some. At the end of the day this is only a short time in my life, just over six months in fact. Hopefully friends will still be around after the summer. I know the TV won't have moved. If I've missed a few nights out, so what? There'll be plenty more to come. Nothing worth having in life comes without a bit of hard work and effort - that's what makes it worthwhile. If it was easy - everyone would do it!
