I had previously taken off the "Health" category I believe or at least the water and face routine from that category and after I did that I found that I slacked off tremendously on drinking water and doing my skincare routine, so i'm adding it back in because apparently I need the accountability everyday.

Getting a little off track with a few things over the past few weeks. Need to get back on track because things were working well for a long time.
Here is a post from January this year, popping it here as a reminder.


This year I am trying to get into a daily routine. I am good at organising things but the small things fall through the cracks.
This years "me" routine will be along the lines of,
Sunday, pack work lunches, do all the folding.
After Dinner, pack dish washer, tidy kitchen, do some craft.
Before bed, make up off, shower, moisturise face, brush and floss.
Bedtime, read, apply hand cream, sleep by 10pm.
Morning, make/pull up bed.

I think that if I start looking after the little things, the big things won't be so hard.

It is good to go back and read what we wrote. I think it helps with maintaining our goals.

I looked at the last quarter to see what worked and didn't work:

What worked -
Simple meals planned for nights of practices and meets
Making up freezer meals
Preparing for events ahead of time to allow for “life” to happen
Writing out details in steps to get things done in small chunks of time
Sticking to the weekly list

What didn’t work
All of the work I thought I could get done, didn’t get done. I was too ambitious with my goals. (Life happened. There was the car accident with follow up phone calls and visits to the body shop and then the building of the retaining wall and the clean up from flooding in our yard.)

This time next year, we will be having a graduation. Since I seem to have ambitious goals in an unrealistic time frame, I want to think about the things I want done around the house and the yard now. I want to work on getting those things in order this summer and fall. Some of it includes the Holiday Spruce Up list I made last fall. I think I will add more things to the list once I finish up the current list. I hope to keep up a maintenance plan for the rest of the year with reminders in my calendar.
