It is a constant source of stress, and I'm not a good multitasker either. I am especially bad at talking/listening (anything verbal...and also writing) while trying to do something else. I can easily multi task with actual TASKS but not with things that require me to process language. I would love to get better at this and calmer about it since I dislike finding myself being so frustrated by the interruptions of the kids. I'm not sure I can get much better at finishing things (since I am generally a pretty good finisher when given the opportunity...which I don't get much), but I need to get better at being less irked by my inability to finish things these days.MRKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17273667096816207202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25502633.post-91614725563338174752011-03-12T22:19:07.240-06:002011-03-12T22:19:07.240-06:00I am so exactly like you.

He opens. He closes. He starts. He finishes. <br /><br />I still have the cross-stitch baby sampler I began for my oldest. Unfinished. <br /><br />Me. Not a finisher. Maybe I'll jump in on your challenge. <br /><br />Blessings<br />Sandwichsandwichinwihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04947099219933994677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25502633.post-80178857427585855952011-03-12T21:27:51.534-06:002011-03-12T21:27:51.534-06:00Great blog.

After all, if God knew we could have many children AND He made us multi taskers...certainly He knew that we might have many projects going at once.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Jill F.<br />www.generationalwomanhood.wordpress.com<br />www.jillcampbellfarris.comJill Farrishttp://www.generationalwomanhood.wordpress.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25502633.post-39442244724337328172011-03-12T11:24:36.815-06:002011-03-12T11:24:36.815-06:00Oh wow!
