Getting it Together
November 5th, 2009
Happy Thursday!
Today I’m off to volunteer at the elementary school. I did my normal, weekly thing with Kyle’s class yesterday, which is always highly enjoyable for me and more rewarding than you can imagine. Today, K and I are running the book fair! This week we’re at the end of our nine week grading period and it’s time for parent teacher conferences and our autumn book fair.
This morning I’ve been reflecting on my current state of being thanks to my friend Shauna. Every life has highs and lows and mine is due for an upswing, so I’m going to make it happen….
Getting it Together…
This is what I need to do…. get it together. Get what together you ask.
My life is the answer.
I’m floundering and I’m in a rut. Here’s my first step to getting out of this rut.
~~ Fly Lady.com ~~
What a fantastic site! If you struggle, even a little, with keeping up with housework and managing household duties, you’ll LOVE this site. It’s dedicated to people who are not BO (born organized) and who need a little help getting off their duff and getting their stuff done. We can’t all be ridiculously tidy and organized like my crazy friend K (*cough* Hi K!).
I’ve been a member of this site for years but have fallen off this wagon as well as a few others. Today, I’m re-hoisting myself onto said wagon and moving forward. Can’t stay in a rut forever. It’s coming into the autumn rainy season here…. much more time down in a rut and I’m libel to drown.
So… here’s my step one for today. Please check out FlyLady’s site. If you’re a homemaker you’ll LOVE it, but even if you work outside of the home… or really, especially if you work outside of the home… you’ll love it. There’s just not enough hours in the day some days and FlyLady will help you get a freaking GRIP of the hours you DO have available.
I hope you’re not feeling like you’re in a rut too, but if you are, there’s no time like the present to take steps to climb out. Don’t worry, it doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. One step at a time. One things at a time. One day at a time. For me, my day is today, my thing is my home, and my step is to FlyLady!
