GETTING THINGS DONE

Yesterday, my husband didn't go to work. We called off school and had a cleanup day, haven't done that in a while. We had a clean up the yard and burn day.

 I don't think I have ever messed with so many pine needles. Not something we had at our old residence, (we have only lived here for 11 months). It will make spring clean up so much easier.

We got a lot done yesterday and it gives me the motivation (thanks to my husband, he is such a motivator if I would just listen to him more often) to clean the inside of my house things I don't clean on a regular basis (windows, baseboards, etc.)

I know having a clean and organized home is a step to a less stressful life and a much happier mommy.

Just little ways to get it together.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE CHANGE MAKES

The weekend seemed to fly by. On Saturday I ran my first 5K. It was something I definitely want to do again.

For the past six days I have decided to make a big change that was worth making. I have been getting out of bed in the morning between 5:00 and 5:45. I know I am crazy, that is a bit early. Well that change has done wonders for my attitude as well as my spirit.

Giving myself that little bit of quiet time before the kids wake up in the morning is so refreshing.   I was having a hard time getting motivated in the morning when I woke up at the same time as the kids as well as rushed and over anxious.

What a great reward. I now look forward to getting up in the morning. I can workout without the kids trying to talk to me the whole time. We can start and finish school earlier. And have the afternoon to just hang out and have fun.

What changes are you making to Get it Together?

HOW DID MY LIFE GET THIS WAY!!!

Ok, so I am reading this for the first time today. It couldn't have come at a more perfect time, being as unorganized as I am. Amy of Amy's Finer Things is doing a Get it Together series. That means I am already 3 days behind. Can I possible catch up and make this stick? There is only one way to find out. AAHHH! Here we go!
