I guess not working for so long, you tend to get comfortable with staying at home and building a different schedule...especially with my Natalee. We had to get use to Torrance's night schedule at one point. Now that I am the working, we have to get use to me working...without a schedule. Sigh....So what is a mom to do? I have decided that somethings just need to wait. Things that aren't that important to me or the happiness of my family. Like for instance...mopping. I hate mopping. I will sweep and all...but I hate mopping..it isn't a favorite chore of mine. Laundry...really who needs clean clothes... Oh an dusting...rule in my house is, if anyone notices the dust and mentions it...they get to clean it. Okay not really!
But I do need a schedule. I am serious on this point...I am looking to balance the following:
-keeping the house clean
-going to work (on time)
-taking care of Natalee
-ensuring Torrance is safe and "set-up" before I leave
The things that might fall into the "in between the lines"
-making dinner
-staying healthy
-and whatever I didn't mention
- OH AND ME TIME!
So what is a girl to do? I am going to try and figure that out this week....that is the first thing.
I will start by sleeping more regular hours....I am learning that no matter what my schedule is, I need to sleep regularly. I need to ask God for the wisdom to make it through the tough spots of my day. When I am too tired to write, play, laugh...those are the moments that matter to me and I would hate to have them stolen from me by not sleeping well...ex...CRANKINESS. Not even my pills of sunshine can help me with that.
So here is to figuring it out...with His grace.
