Failure

Mon, 07 Feb 2005 18:45:16 -0500

I've not written because I've been beating myself up for still struggling to establish a real working routine that helps me get everything done that I need and want to do. I get emails from FLYLADY. She's a woman who mentors people through email to help them get organized by establishing daily routines. check her out at Read More

What now?

Sun, 09 Jan 2005 19:45:35 -0500
Well, last week all I expected of myself was to get out of bed and get dressed while it was still morning. I did that, for the most part. I think. I'm having trouble remembering for sure. Must be mommy-brain. This week I will add something new. I will: ~get up ~get dressed ~drink a tall glass of water ~spend 5 minutes cleaning up the k... Read More

Redemption

Mon, 03 Jan 2005 21:24:26 -0500
I should save that subject line for a more profound entry. ;) I just wanted to say that I redeemed the day. I drank lots of water, took my vitamins, cleaned the kitchen, went grocery shopping, and did 2 loads of laundry. I think for the rest of the week all I will require of myself is that I get out of bed and get dressed while it's still mornin... Read More

Duty, Duty, Doodee

Ever say a word so often it loses all meaning? I think I'm talking about my goals too much. They're losing meaning. I got up and got dressed this morning. That's it. I guess that's enough for now. Believe it or not it's better than I've been doing for the last few weeks. I'm so tired in the morning. Getting out of bed is so hard aft... Read More

Such a cliche!

Sun, 02 Jan 2005 16:00:42 -0500
Hmmm, I don't usually make "New Year's Resolutions". I just don't think picking an arbitrary day of the year (okay, the first day is a pretty good one if you're going to pick a day.) to make a change. I think it's best to make changes at a time when it makes sense to do so. For me, that ideal time was six months ago, and I did a great job for a ... Read More

What\'s my problem?

Thu, 30 Dec 2004 16:38:21 -0500
Er, it's not going so well. I mean I haven't even been able to handle the smallest routine. Part of the problem is that I'm not sleeping well at night. Abby and I got the flu before Christmas and that messed up her ability to sleep on her own at night. Now, she's waking up again at night and having a very hard time getting back to sleep. So...

Well, Maybe Tomorrow,...

Tue, 28 Dec 2004 15:01:18 -0500
I didn't exactly start fresh today, as I had intended. It was cold, and oh, so hard to get out of bed in the morning. So, I'm parked in front of the computer, which is such a powerful draw for me in the morning. I enjoy my cup of coffee and reading my email. I should use that pleasure as an incentive, though. From now on I will save the email ... Read More

Starting Yet Again

Mon, 27 Dec 2004 17:15:25 -0500
I failed again. I stopped doing my routines, gained back 10 pounds, let the house get messy again, and let our finances get even worse. I'm very stressed out by the amount of debt we are carrying. I'm disappointed in myself that once again I failed to create lasting change in my life. The good news is that I'm prepared to start over. I've al... Read More
