Spinning Plates Shatter to the Ground

#TeachWriteober19
Day 3

Upon arriving at home after a brief happy hour with a friend, I get horizontal on the couch. My last thought as my eyelids begin to droop is, "I can't drift off yet. I haven't written my blog today." Too late. Lights out.

Yet here I am. Awake at midnight. With way too much on my mind.

My to-do list remains undone. Including #TeachWriteober19. I missed the deadline. I was supposed to write every day. I dropped another ball, but I'm still trying. Does that count?

Lately, it seems like the proverbial plates I'm spinning are shattering on the ground. Perhaps it was a purchase order that never got sent to the vendor. Or maybe it was the data spreadsheet I didn't quite finish. And now it's this blog.

I will sweep up the pieces and get back to work. *Sigh*
