Getting Organized
Well, after reading this post: http://genuineprofit.lifewithchrist.org/permalink/10399
I decided it was high time that I tried to get more organized. :)
I used to be quite organized. After starting a business and having a baby, my organization skills have been dwindling. Recently, I have been feeling like I have to do SOMETHING to get order back into my life or things are going to get completely out of control!
So, I was very thankful for the motivation of the above article. Jesse took care of Kathrynne this afternoon and I made up a master schedule and a a cleaning schedule, plus a menu planner and a before bed routine. I printed all of this out and put it in a binder in plastic page protectors so that I can use a dry-erase marker to check things off as I do them.
I may post these schedules, but first I have to implement them and see how it goes. :) I'm sure it will take some tweaking, but I am very determined, by God's grace, that I am going to have an orderly home and life. Order is pleasing to not only the Lord, but also my husband. Plus, it is a way to bless my family!

Hi! All the best with getting organised! I find that I often have to go back and re-evaluate how my organising is going. I was using FlyLady 1/2-3/4 successfully but recently I bought Motivated Moms and that has pushed me over to being much more organised. I'm still implementing a lot of FlyLady's ideas/thinking but with the one checklist for the week/day I'm actually DOING it!!!
So, yeah go for it! I hope you find yourself feeling more organised and less stressed!
Yay! I'm so glad my article motivated you. (This is Candy)
Please do post your schedules, as seeing them will motivate others. :-D
Remember, if there's a part of your shedule that you don't do, then change it around, until it's in a format that you will enjoy doing. :-)
