I agree, Mach. I want to actually BE busy. I grew up as a "burning the candle at both ends" kinda kid.... I liked that.
I'm trying to gain some type of "traction" and just get out. It isn't always easy, or doable with the kids' activities. They really aren't super-booked, like I was growing up, or like most kids now.
In other words, yes, I could do more than I am. Guilt? Fear? Money? Idk.
I catch myself wanting to GAL....then finding excuses to not. I need to change that conversation, huh....
