Now, when I really sit down and evaluate things, I do waste some time. But, I am not motivated to be more organized
I've been thinking about this lately -- because its true for me as well. There is a lot of loose, unstructured time that I *could* spend accomplishing things -- however, once I actually try to do something I get absolutely frustrated with the children constantly under my feet and interupting, and it ends up taking all day just to finish one chore. So then I realize, "Oh, this is why I wasn't feeling motivated to do this!"

There are so many projects I would feel good about attempting if I spent the day alone -- but I know for a fact things would not go well if I tried doing them with kids to care for at the same time. And when I had PPD -- forget it!
