Finding time

It's been said many times how important it is for one's well-being to set aside a little time for oneself. And that includes unemployed people like me.

Although I no longer get up in the morning with an alarm clock (except for those times I have to be out of town), I still have to manage my time if I want to accomplish anything. So, once again I find myself engaging in the art of" multi-tasking".

When we lived in Kitchener, Ontario, I used to belong to a wonderful quilting group at FHUC . Since we moved to Brantford, I haven't found a quilting group so, it's been lonely quilting on my own. Then I discovered the wonderful world of digital library where I have novels, self help books, etc. downloaded right in my computer! That's how I found time to "read" and quilt at the same time. When I reach my maximum of 5 books/2 weeks (I usually go through them in about a week), I switch to CBC audio podcasts...But I still miss visiting with my quilting buddies.

Knitting is another activity when I can listen at the same time.... I tried reading a book while I was on my stepper but I found that too wobbly. I guess there's a limit to multi-tasking after all!
