I recently wrote a post for The Ruby Connection on ‘busy’ness’.

In 2000 that all changed. In quick succession I had 3 babies in 3.5 years. Having It All started to rub a little.
However, I kept up the pace. I was a whirlwind after work each day as I vacuumed the floor; checked my emails; fed the cat; checked my emails; made dinner; checked my emails; bathed the kids; checked my emails; listened to my partner’s day; checked my emails and collapsed into bed… and checked my emails.
