I read an article about her in the latest Good Housekeeping and she suggested starting a "One Sentence a Day" journal. I love it. Not overwhelming, and completely doable.
So doable, I've been writing about a paragraph a day. And I've kept up with it for about 13 days! I will post Day 1-12 here soon. Figure it might be a cute little book - one day!
So for today -
01.12.12
Started putting presents away - remarkably enough room for many things. Michael's games are out of control - not enough room for that, but we love playing games - so GONNA MAKE ROOM! Michael had a Wii playdate with Colin, which ended up at Margherita's for Pizza! SO SO SO very proud of my little guy who was well behaved, sat and ate his pizza quietly and on his bottom like an adult, and said: Please, Thank you, and was well mannered. My friend's 2 kids were bouncing off the wall and not listening at all to their mother. To their defense, they are part of 3 children households - and sometimes - that's just the way life is. It's not a bad reflection on their mother, it's just wild and crazy and totally normal. I rarely ever find 3 children households that are calm.
The shopaholic in me thinks I NEED this:
I don't like to tell my inner shopaholic "No." Ouch.VOILA! Let's see how long this can last. Taking bets -
What date do YOU think will be the last day I actually do this?
What date do YOU think will be the last day I actually do this?
I am going to give myself a little cushion. I may not post a sentence EVERYday. But my goal is to post at least once every 5 days with ALL 5 days covered in that post.
And please do not post: January 18th. It will hurt my feelings. And don't all post at once! HAHAH! Thank you for those who stuck with me while I have apparently given up on blogging!
