I have so much work to do!

I have been trying to limit my computer time over the last couple of weeks. Getting a laptop was liberating at the beginning - but sometime over the last while has become obsessive! LOL!! You know you might have a problem if every single thought you think becomes a Google search!
So now I am trying to limit myself with a timer to the early morning before school - and then not until lunchtime, and then after the tidying is done in the afternoon. I have been making lists of the things I want to Google, so I can get to it later! Have I ever told you how much I dig Wikipedia??
The problem is that there is so much work to do in my house right now - as there is for all moms at the change of seasons! Clothes need to be rotated and stored or given away, toys and a lot of books need to leave this house, windows need to be washed now that the Windex won't immediately freeze upon contact (except that it is snowing this morning!!), and my yard needs someone who knows more than I do!!!
And technically we are supposed to be finished school in about a month! A month!! Ugh! I just remembered yesterday that I need to submit my evaluation! I have so much stuff that I wanted to do this year - and I still have no idea what I want to do for next year!
So while I still feel stressed about all there is to do - there is so much I am looking forward to! The main thing being CAMPING!! Oh how I can hardly wait to be outside, let my hubby take the kids to the lake and I can stay at the site and read in the shade of my canopy! We spent Mother's day with my parents in Lumsden where they had thier new camper parked - and the itch has been activated in me!! I can't wait!
I also am looking forward to things ending! I love the end of the year when activities are over and the schedule is put to rest! Wednesdays are already done for the kids, and almost for us, dance is ending soon, swimming will be over right away and choir is almost done!
Now if the snow would just stop falling....
