Work in Progress

How do you balance two kids, a husband, a house, two acting jobs, auditions, volunteering and spirituality? I don't know either, but I'm trying and its an interesting journey. I know I'm a Work in Progress and I have all of the Self Help books to prove it!
Each day is a chance for improvement. I have my successes and failures. For example, a recent great success: I managed to finally clear my kitchen countertop of the huge pile of junk mail, coupons, old bills, to-do lists, Dr. appointment reminder cards, kids' Birthday cards, store reciepts, pens, pencils and highlighters which has been there, seemingly, since the beginning of time! Contrasted by a recently discovered failure: I stumbled upon the THREE Organization books I purchased over a year ago under the huge pile of junk mail, coupons, old bills, to-do lists, etc. which once covered my kitchen counter! Did I use these books to organize my kitchen? Nope, because I couldn't find them!
I know that I'm scatter-brained and I often bite off more than I can chew. But, according to my friends and family, this often accounts for my most interesting stories!
I'll try to keep my posts short yet frequent... I hope this goes well!
