When life gets too busy, I keep this word in mind: 
Simplify:
1. make (something) simpler or easier to do or understand
Yesterday I shared a bit about what’s been going on around the Hamrick home and even with all that we’ve had going on, we haven’t been busy. I’ve had to strategically organize my life in such a way that we have some white space, which explains why my blog has gathered dust lately. (And why I had to literally brush dust off the little laptop-pillow-desk I use when I write.)
What do you do when you are faced with an overwhelmed calendar? How do you recharge? Have you learned to say no when you need to? Have you ever noticed you aren’t at your best when you’re too busy?
Join me over at Planting Roots as I share the story of the sign I might just put up on my front door based on lessons I learned during one particularly busy season.
