Let the Adrenaline Run

Streaming into Shabbos,* the pace quickens as if reading a novel where the plot thickens Only an hour left, so much to do and to shlepp** How will it all get done ~ Let the adrenaline run ... Down goes the sun All tasks completed one by one ______________________________________________ *'Shabbos' = the Jewish Sabbath, starting Friday evening **'schlepp' = carry; haul

Adrenaline, I'm afraid I'm fresh out of that...I use to run on it especially at the Holiday season, now I sort of groan and know even if it all didn't get accomplished, I've done my best, and nobody really knows all that I had planned to do anyway! Have a blessed and peaceful Sabbath Gershon!

That's the recipe, all right, Jerry: One thing at a time 'til everything is ready for the Sabbath. Cheers, gw

Tackling big workloads one by one is the right approach. Putting things off only makes the work pile up. A great poem with lovely rhyming. :)
