Building with blocks

[primsong]

The last few days have really been just like the ones preceding them, but they seem moreso. That is, I once again only longingly remember the days when I could have a block of time and have something to fill it with, instead of having a block of time and having to decide which of several things will be the lucky one this time to actually get done.

I feel as if I am forever mentally shoving and rearranging blocks of time in my head, laying at night when I should be going to sleep instead I am trying to figure out how the blocks will be arranged and apportioned the following day, and then what to do when I am partway into building my day's block-stack and someone hands me yet another item that needs to be done, but I don't have any more blocks....I have to get out my saw and cut one of my bigger blocks in half, round the corners off another to make it fit.

I would like a day where I can reach out and just swat down the block-pile, like my son does when he 'blows up' a block building!

I 'm sorry I can't even begin to go back and read all the tantalizingly interesting LJ entries all of you have left the last three days or so... I'm out of blocks.

::hands you a nice box of blocks: the nice plain ones made of hardwood that feel smooth in your hand and make a nice clinking sound when you hit them together...::
