I try to look at the big picture when I start to feel like I'm not "accomplishing enough". What did I *really* do today? Things that might not be measured in hours of housework. Did I watch TV? Was it with my children? That counts as spending time with family. Did I read a magazine and maybe get some new healthy recipes? Or maybe learned some self-help tips? That counts towards furthering my family's health. Granted, there are some times I am simply goofing off, but that too can have its place in keeping balance. My mother-in-law has a sign up in her house that reads, "My home is clean enough to be healthy and dirty enough to be happy". It's all about balance.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a bathroom to clean....
