balancing the books

It seems that I haven't had time to get all the check books up to date all at once. I was having trouble figuring

Just how can this be?

Last month I didn't even pay all the bills and THAT is not like me at all.

Hubby was also amazed (and sometime not in a very pleasant way) at this lack of balance!

So yesterday I made the goal that today I was going to get all of them done. Once I sat down I knew within a couple of minutes just why I hadn't been able to get them caught up!

G came to tell me something, then something else, then decided that he wanted to play the drums, then had to show me something, then begged me to work the puzzle, then asked me to find his 'kid bopz' cd, then play the drums while he sang along (I at that time told him he had to sing and play in another room ~ any other room). This went on for the entire time I was sitting here.

I was diligent in sticking to the books, but mentally was spent at having all of the above going on around me. I just can't shut it all out. I think it's the same as when I used to talk on the phone, no body wants anything until you sit down to talk, when I'm sitting in front of the computer G thinks I'm not doing anything.
