Life Trumps Blog

I fully intended to write a blog post last night.

But, instead, I sat on the couch with my hubby.

I planned to write one this morning.

But my in-laws are visiting from a couple thousand miles away. We sat at the table and worked puzzles with the kids. Then had lunch.

This afternoon seemed a good time.

But I collected documents and dropped them off at the school my kids will attend this fall.

Then, I got home. And emailed a few friends, a few editors, gave my kids some carrots.

And this. This post is short.

Because I need to work on my novel. Make dinner. Find the bottom of my sink.

Life trumps blog. Every time.

Do you ever have to put off a task so that you are able to live life? What are you glad to “back-burner” for the sake life?
