January card file

[Nancy]

Decluttering progress
The other day I sorted lotions, bath products, soap and creams.

Last night I sort color crayons; colored pencils, pens, chalk and
color books.

It feels great to get some progress on this.

Got out of the house it was up to 45* here the past two days yea.
Dear sis had to go go mom's b/c of power outages in the south from
the ice storm.

As you may have noticed with the new schedule this last week especially I have had a hard time restructering my dailies etc. I am redoing my card file and separting weeklies over the next two weeks as well as setting up a time to do dailies. dkids, now that I have not given in, have been very very cooperative regarding dishes, they may pretend and put it off but I am nice but firm. and they have responded in kind. no excuses works anymore. I used to feel like I was in a courtroom and my dkids were the attorneys telling me why in thinking they didn't have time to do the work. so that seems to be out the window.

Sunday: bill day and beauty: beauty means having clean laundry, each our responsibility, also I am cooking today
church, also figuring out how I can do homework and work at the house and be there for driving and just be there for kids. my menu fell behind this week to, so we ate out all week and I feel fatter for it, , so balancing making meals will be a plus.

So this morning:
exercise
work with dogs
pull card file and work on it.
do paper later this afternoon

what I think I need is setting up a time for approx when I will do things. I am thinking that getting up earlier and not just sitting on the couch I could do a load of laundry. and do a couple dailies.
