And So Another Day Begins

After a little reflecting and prayer last night I was "reminded" that I really haven't been following the schedule I set for summer. In fact, we haven't been using it at all in the last 3 weeks- which is really when things began to fall apart.

My children thrive on structure. And, to be honest, so do I. I feel discombobulated when I don't have a list or a schedule and I've been flying by the seat of my pants for the past 3 weeks.

So, back to the schedule we go. I'm actually going to buy something that may not be completely necessary... I'm going to buy a new planner. Basically it will be my life in a binder. I want my envelopes in it, as well a weekly calendar and a schedule form (Franklin Covey has one that I think will work). So after gymnastics this morning we are off to the only mall in the area that has a Franklin Covey to get me organized.

I've been using Cozi, which I like, but it doesn't travel well... And I really can't justify a "smart phone" as I won't pay the extra for internet... So I'm getting a planner. Wow, that was a lot of writing for such a small bit of info, wasn't it?

What I was actually planning to share was that I was awake at 3:30am. I tried to go back to sleep... Tossed, turned, listened to a bit of hail... And finally gave in and got out of bed at 4:30am. I logged on to Hulu and watched the season premier of Psych. If you haven't see it let me just say this- get the first two seasons on DVD and prepare to laugh. Then get caught up online. Good stuff. Witty. Smart.

Thanks to everyone who sent me hugs and offers of margueritas (I'm thinking the froze drink sounds pretty good- especially if I can get a serenade from a gypsy.) Today will be much better. It has to be!
