I am reading a new book and came across this acronym which is oh too perfect for what God is saying to me lately.

Burdened Under Satan’s Yoke

I am slowing down and simplifying.    Hence the month’s worth of reading courtesy of Psalm121.ca/year3.html

Turn out that yes almost in every case, the things that I have been on my hubby’s case for I was myself doing.    Eg 1.   Working from early in the morning to late at night (human striving accomplishes nothing.. how can I know this and still fall so completely and utterly in this snare over and over again)

Eg 2 Taking on more than I can handle… for me this looks like starting a ton of little projects and leaving them unfinished creating a low grade “have to finish/clean up/touch up that project list” in my head and essentially overcommitting my time and stealing time out of my tomorrows…  turns out that if we focus on dressing the kids, making our bed and eating our meals… we can handle that kind of day kind of seamlessly.    I will be adding to our activity level slowly and focussing on finishing what we start.    Oh my, yes meaning breakfast dishes done before we go on to the next activity etc.

Eg 3 Taking on someone else’s monkey.. such a neat concept I will give it it’s own post
