Ready to work ... hair work to be done at salon (sounds fancier than saying getting a hair cut and dye) 10:30 to hair 12:30 :D

my house right now:

dishes in the sink from 2 days ago, floors that were washed the day before by hand are filthy again, cat is sleeping in the laundry dh put on the dining room table yesterday instead of putting it away, stuff is out BUT it is an absolutely beautiful day. 60 degrees and sunny and not a cloud in the sky

goals: laundry put away, laundry flip flop, dailies and 3 season room

3:13 pm: home again and i just want to veg... lol
okay thinking hat on and timer in hand... whats the next right thing to do.
4:22 pm chicken soup is cook, I vacuumed and hand washed again the kitchen floor 1/2 of it.
took table for my dmom's photos to 3 season room and put most of the photo pieces back there
6:58 pm dinner done - omgoodness the family came in and was done eating if 15 minutes (think I will have to slow them down - as it felt like a college dorm)
next clean up the kitchen




I am on Christmas planning again.

dd older present - taking college pictures I have saved and put in a book
dd younger a baby book and a summer 2013 book. we always do that
dmom anniversary pictures
brother a book of him as a youngster
I am starting to think of words of wisdom best thoughts type of thing as a gift for a baby shower from everyone in the family.

I'm going to try to make my schoolweek daytimes work for me by the hour this way when possible :

before school run - personal routines
7:00 - 8:00 - Morning Daily Card 60
8:00 - 9:00 - fruit breakfast, declutter 15, Focus
9:00 - 10:00 -exercise 20-25, break, brunch
10:00 - project time
11:00 - project time
12:00 - project time
1:00 - lunch, weeklies
2:00 - plan any errands, school run
2:30 - until? - errands in the early afternoon
back at home - Afternoon Daily Card 30
supper and family until time for Evening Daily Card 30

That project time is going to have to include work at my parents' house, of course, so not exactly the creative moments I'd hope all the time. But maybe sometimes.

Today I was in the big city driving around and an appt, so today was not the day to try to start this, but maybe tomorrow.

It hinges on getting good sleep at night.

I like the schedule d harriet.... I still am floating from activity to activity which is not good for my inability to focus unless it is planned. :D Its hard to do the work at your folks house - its emotion of all sorts and your time is split from activities at home.

d nancy great job bwp and the eod card!

I know I too have lost my own time - I am trying to remember to give myself 1 hour a day but then the day gets away from me. Today I woke up late and I looked at the house and can see so much that needs to be done again and tried to think when I could give my self time. I just want to make sure everyone in the house has a livable home that they enjoy coming home to. Last night it looked cleaner and I had a nice dinner. The house and family have calmer evenings if I work and plan ahead. dd younger said the house is not the same when I am not in it even with everyone else home... "you're the glue that holds it all together" - one side was really touched but the other side sad that they don't connect as much when I am not home - I have to figure out how to make that better.

I had washed some of the dishes yesterday but still have some left over from last night. and the kitchen floor I washed is dirty again. Laundry is still haunting me and clutter is still lurking in every area so it is time to do my daily declutter again (I haven't done that in a year). I have to stop concentrating on every thing that needs to be done and just do what is needed next.

picked up dd :D
saw a dear dear friend :D :D :D
spoke to dmom and dmil :D
I did more interacting then acting ;)
went to target and got dh bday cards for tomorrow and a couple of his favorite snacks and dd tomorrow
dinner was made, kids helped put dishes away and put a load on wash and I vacuumed the floor and we still had a few dishes left over


So back to the kitchen to empty yesterdays dishes and start all over again.
it took much longer than I thought to do the kitchen. The floor still needs washing but it can wait until after I cook dinner

Papaer work is on the table, and mail and my purchase of swiffer wash on another chair.
