Wish list

My children are asleep and I wonder what to do with my time. Do I nap also or take advantage of an hour or two of quiet? Do I start a project or start a blog? If I do start something, will I be able to finish before they awake? Why does this feel like a complicated decision?
In my house there are three closets awaiting my intervention on their road to chaos. But then there is my family awaiting dinner. There are three patterns I purchased in hopes of creating an exciting new wardrobe ensemble and there are my little boys asking me to come sit with them and read a book. There is the newspaper or there is my Bible. Always a choice, always a decision.
I saw an object lesson performed once that equated the important things in life, God, family, etc., with walnuts. The other things in our daily life were represented by rice. When the rice went into a container first and the walnuts were pushed into the top there was not enough room for all. But when the same amount of walnuts were put in first and the same amount of rice went in afterwards it all fit in perfectly. I hope I put all the walnuts in first.(:
