Ending a Busy Week

It's been quite the busy week. Some of it was good--I am no longer an unemployed bum (I am now an employed bum)! Some of it was bad (between work, short daylight hours, and some other things, I didn't have the time to make up for my lack of automotive expertise, and paid someone else to replace my alternator--though the lead-up to that is an entertaining story for later). And now I'm tired.

I just realized how insidious busyness can be. When I get busy (in that harried sort of way), I very much look forward to sitting down and relaxing. But I usually try to squeeze some relaxation in before I am actually done. In the end, I deprive myself of both long-term peace of mind, and of real rest.

Now to get the laundry folded, and get some sleep. That's the perfect end to this busy week.
