New Habits Here I Come... Agian

I love the blog called the Lazy Organizer. I haven't been there all summer and shame on me. She has great tips and useful tips. Every Saturday, she encourages you to set a small goal that will become a habit. To say I have poor home management habits is an understatement. I think I drove my mom nuts when she was here this summer. *sigh*

Well, I can't be totally perfect right? So here we go again. First goal, and remember I'm a slow learner, lol, so I may not add something new every week. Gosh, I also don't like to fail.

Goal 1: Tidy the hours for 20-30 minutes per day. Maintenance cleaning I guess you could call it.

I'll let you know how it goes. Have a good weekend.

Well it's been a couple of weeks. I'm going to regroup.

Habit 1: load of laudry everyday.

Habit 2: walk or ride bike everyday.

Habit 3: keep kitchen table and counters cleared off everyday.

Sorry I havn't been around. I've been finishing up the school year and it really wipped me out. Tons of paper work etc, but that's special ed. for you. Hope everyone is well.

Well, I have been very bad about my smart habits.
1- clothes ready and ironed for work
2- clean dinning room
3- dishes done before bed
Not that it's an excuse, but I have had a terrible sinus thing and just fell off the wagon so to speak. I am wrapping up my school year and have tons of paper work because I am a special ed. teacher. It's take all the energy I've had. Must do better. No new goals. Hope all you other gals have been well and have done better than me. Until next week.

The Lazy Organizer sponsors a goal setting activity that helps those who participate to make positive changes in their lives. Most of us focus on home management goals, but it could be anything. My goals so far:
1- Have my clothes ironed and ready for each work day. Improving
2- Clear and clean dinning table. Everyday this week!
New: All dishes clean before going to bed or in the dishwasher to be cleaned. Yikes, this is a big one for me. Very sad, but oh so true.
Please check out the link. It amazing how helpful it is to publicly announce a goal and get encouragement. Thanks gals.

S.M.A.R.T. Habit Saturday

Hi all. Well last week I forgot to post, guess I need to make a habit of that. Ha, Ha. Thank you for leaving messages on my first post it meant so much. I have been working on my blog a lot and working full time. I can't wait until this summer when I have more time. School's out May 31.
Back to my goal: prepare my clothes the night before work. I did much better this past two weeks. It's becoming a habit, but it's a mental thing with me. I still find myself saying..."you can do it in the morning" It really frustrates me that I do that to myself. Really not sure where that comes from? Anyway, I had my clothes picked out all ten days, and only had to run downstairs and iron two days. My ironing needs to be done the night before too.

Next goal: Oh the Kitchen, well I'm starting with baby steps here. Keep the table cleared off. I use it as a dumping ground.

Well to say the least I am a slow learner. My goal was to have my clothes ready the night before work inorder to get to work on time. I picked out my clothes, but did not iron them. That defeats the purpose don't you think? I do. Second, I need a support group for "I hate mornings!" I need to get up no later than 5:45am and I don't drag myself out of bed until 6:00am. It's not the way to start out a day. It's such a self-defeating habit. I really must master this goal.
