When are you working too much?
The truth of the matter is -- we are working too hard and putting in too many hours on the next books and on all of our other tasks and jobs. But we have barometers in our home who tell us that we've lost our way. They are named Leaf, Cuddles, Speedy, and Sunshine.
Cuddles, the little black-and-white cat, vocalizes with a scolding tone of voice, telling us to knock it off. Speedy, the big cat, plants himself on our laps the moment we sit down on the couch. Sunshine, the bird, screeches more than usual.
Leaf taps with his curly black paw on our knees and pleads with big, dark-brown eyes for someone, anyone, to throw a ball for him to retrieve.
Everybody joins in the chorus to let us know that it is time to rest, time to take a break, or to play.
Who is in charge of keeping you in balance when your life fills up with too many to-do list items?
