Much to do about nothing....excuse me Shakespeare

It's been almost 2 months since I've left a post and for anyone who actually reads my ramblings, I apologize. It's a cold, snow covered Friday morning, in fact it's 2/29...the extra day we're given this year. An extra 24 hours that we don't normally get. So what do I do with it? I have had so much going on in my head lately, sometimes I just don't know what to do first and I end up doing nothing! Pathetic huh? I only work 2 days/week. On Weds mornings I volunteer at the church library. On Sundays, we go to church. That leaves me with LOTS of time to so something. Here are the things I have wanted/needed to do: make 300 favors for my son's wedding in April. Organize my house (I even bought a book to tell me how). Attempt to be more environmentally responsible (read an awesome book about this). Create weekly menus, purchase groceries to use for these menus using coupons that I've clipped to save money for these menus. Keep up with the laundry and cleaning of the house. Cook said menus. Watch "American Idol" and of course place my votes.
Pay monthly bills. Keep up with email. Play games on the computer. Read my latest James Patterson murder mystery. Take a nap. Get my hair cut and colored. Pet the cat. And as you can see....it all goes downhill from here. Where's my time with God? When do I exercise? Could that be why I'm starting to develop hypertension (yesterday at work, my blood pressure was 150/92...very high for me).
Seriously, I feel I need to get my priorities back in line but for the life of me, I'm not sure how. So until I figure it out, or God smacks me up the side of the head, I will continue doing much...much of nothing. Oh...did I ask you to say a prayer for me?? Thanks.
