A Road Less Travelled

I’m feeling slightly ADD this morning. The funny thing is it’s working for me. I put in my load of laundry, ran upstairs to put something away, found my pile of clothes that needed stain treatment, and decided hey, this would be a good time to start soaking those. After I took care of those I sat down to work on blog and e-mail stuff, but after a bit one of the children wanted to use the computer so I bopped up to put my clothes in the dryer, in the course of which I ended up taking Lansberry clothes out of the dryer and putting in a load of blankets to be washed.

I ended up in the kitchen putting away leftover oatmeal to be made into oatmeal cookies of some sort later, and as I planned this out in my head I thought maybe I should grind some flour. My philosophy of grinding flour is that if we keep wheat in the grinder then we’ll keep enough flour on hand for incedentals just by people walking past and giving the handle a turn or two. So I ground a few tablespoons of flour and thought if I took some Emergen-C then all those vitamins would give me even more energy to be running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off! Then I thought this would make a good first post on the new blog, but I can’t take long because there’s laundry to keep moving, and cleaning to do, and maybe I’ll even get to my mending pile in between whatever food preparation tasks come my way. Is this what they call multi-tasking?
