Overwhelmed

I am totally overwhelmed because I was away Saturday and Sunday and fell behind in reading my favorite blogs, my listserv, and my Readerville forums. Actually I signed up for another listserv at the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators site, but it functions differently then Child_Lit and I haven't been keeping up with it at all. I'm also having working woman problems--I'm having trouble managing keeping up a house and a writing career. (I consider this a professional problem, which is why I'm mentioning it here.)

As part of the overwhelmed mess I'm in right now I've lost the article I was going to write about today. I also have three manuscripts to read for my writers' group, which meets tomorrow night. I made the mistake of reading my spiritual advisor's (Jane Yolen's)on-line journal. She did, oh, I don't know, forty or fifty things in the last three days.
