Speeding

For the last two weeks or so it feels like I've been speeding. At work I run from one meeting to another and I’m constantly trying to catch up on emails and phone calls. In between all of that I also have to try to squeeze in some real work, which usually means evenings and/or weekends. At home the list of things that need to be done is long and I just keep running.

This weekend was the first weekend since Xmas that I didn’t have anything planned. I’ve been looking forward to it for days, but I just couldn’t settle down with a book or magazine. My mind was still racing with things I need to do.

Cooking a very nice and yummy pasta dish with salmon distracted my thoughts for a while, but I feel very much how both my body and souls is on super speed and that sort of worries me. I think I need to do something fun and totally carefree to break this downward spiral.
