Elder Care

We live in a fast paced time. There is a lot to do...work, cleaning the house, errands, grocery shopping, family time and if you are in your 50's then you probably have the responsibility of elder care. I think we are called the "sandwich" generation? We are between caring for our children and our parents.

Our already busy life is now being stretched needing to create space for more .... and more. But there are only 24 hours in a day no matter how we may wish for more time.

So I think it's a time to re-evaluate our priorities. Let go of the things that aren't meaningful and use our time to do the important things. So that's where I am at. I need to look at what I spend my time doing so that I can get to the place of "being" present more often for my mom and her husband. Can you relate to all of this? Tell us about it.
