I got off to a slow start on this week's goals. Getting the kids back onto their chore schedule proved tough because of all the late nights I've been having with Luke and Christian. When Mommy sleeps too late mornings get off on the wrong foot! Getting the kitchen clean in the evenings fell prey to the same problem...I was too exhausted after supper most nights to worry about it.
But I got so much more done this week than I would've without the challenge! I read a chapter in my Bible every morning and wrote down my prayers every morning. That's something I've wanted to get back to for a long time so I'm really tickled about it. I did a little more blogging, too, which was nice. And I have this afternoon set aside to settle down with some tea and fill in my Bible - I've been looking forward to it all week.
For next week...
- Continue working with the kids on their morning and afternoon chores. We're getting the toy room and bedrooms completely picked p today - that should help.
- same goes for the kitchen!
- I also need to gt to bed and get up earlier through the week.
- On Saturday, I'm planning to have all my work done...house cleaned, church clothes ironed, dinner started...by three so that I can have a little time "off" and we can all have a relaxing evening together.
Thanks, Monica, for hosting this series. It's such a help!

Hi Shannon - Great job on setting aside time with the Lord this week. I'm so glad it was a blessing to you!
Your list for next week looks great too! Thanks for joining!

You're off to a good start. It's also hard for me to get going in the mornings if I'm tired, but having a routine does help a little bit.
