I’d like to be perfect, but alas, I’m never going to make it. Only God is perfect, and he must laugh at me, trying to keep up with him!
\nEleven days into 2005 the need to reform my life has hit me. When I got up this morning, I decided I would take one chore at a time and work my way through stuff that I hate to do.
\nI cleaned the kitchen, pulled together the ingredients for tonight’s dinner salad, washed and chopped and diced and bagged it up, so that it would be crisp, and then did a gazillion loads of laundry. Usually the folding and putting away of laundry has to wait until the end of the day, but I got it done load by load. I tidied my room, made my bed, cleaned off the counter at the sink. I started beef vegetable soup in the Crockpot, and THEN…..I worked in the office for a while.
\nAll of this came about because I was avoiding my time on the treadmill today. We returned to exercise yesterday, and I can feel EVERY muscle over my ribs, I swear! It was one of those…..”Lord, please take me NOW” mornings. It won’t keep me from going to exercise tomorrow, but I may wince a bit. Remind me not to take an entire month off next time.
\nI NEED to get my life organized. I find that I can’t focus when there is a mess drawing my attention, so I’m trying to think of ways to eliminate clutter, organize media, and simplify my life. If you have something that works for you, let me know, won’t you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
