Well, it’s Wednesday and this is the first time I am writing since Sunday. I told you that my goal for this week was going to be to manage my computer time. I have been online less than 2 hours every day like I wanted to be. However, I am not getting things, like blogging, [...]

Thank you for joining me on this journey to a more organized life and home. Thanks to this series I am reading my Bible for 15 minutes each day, getting dressed nicely, exercising for 10 minutes, trying to get 8 hours of sleep each night, and trying to drink more water each day. This week I [...]

11 Weeks to a More Organized Life & Home: Week 4 in Review

Another week has passed and another habit has (hopefully) been formed. The progress is beginning to seem slow. I am only 4 weeks into this journey of being more organized in both my life and my home, but it feels like I should be farther along. I have stated before that I believe the reason [...]

11 Weeks to a More Organized Life & Home: Week 4 (Get 8 Hours of Sleep)

I had hoped to have this post up much earlier than this. How funny that my goal for this week is to get 8 hours of sleep and I am down to the wire of getting to sleep in time. Plus, I didn’t exercise today. I simply ran out of time. I’m not going to [...]

Three weeks into this series and I am feeling really good about meeting my goals of reading the Bible for 15 minutes, getting dressed nicely, and exercising for 10 minutes each day. Sometimes I feel like I am not making much progress by only trying to achieve one new goal each week. However, I think that trying [...]

11 Weeks to a More Organized Life & Home: Week 3 (10 Minutes of Exercise)

week3

Two weeks into this series and I am feeling really good about meeting my goals of reading the Bible for 15 minutes and getting dressed nicely every day. I have been thinking about why goals I have made in the past never stick. I think it boils down to trying to do too much at [...]

This week I have been getting “dressed for success” by wearing nice clothes and fixing my hair. This was week #2 of trying to get my life and home organized before the new year. I am happy to say that I met my goal, and for the past 7 days I have worn jeans, a nice [...]

Re-Evaluating My Wardobe

Sunday I told you about my goal for this week of getting dressed (nicely) and fixing my hair each morning. So far so good, but it has been so tempting the past two days to just stay in my old clothes. This afternoon I decided to take all of the clothes out of my closet. [...]

11 Weeks to a More Organized Life & Home: Week 2 (Dress for Success)

DSC02031

Last week I began reading the Bible for 15 minutes each day as I started trying to get my life and home organized before the new year. This week’s goal has to do with clothing. Now, I am no fashionista. Quite frankly I don’t enjoy shopping for clothes. I think it stems from when I was a teenager [...]

11 Weeks to a More Organized Life & Home: Week 1 in Review

On Sunday I told you that my goal for this week was going to be to spend a concentrated 15 minutes each day reading my Bible. I am happy to report that I met my goal! I read through the book of Romans and started reading Hebrews this morning. I have no real plan other than [...]
