I’m kind-of a wreck right now, and in a state of panic.
The holidays are over, Christmas decor is about to be put away (I know, I’m a slacker) and my house should be returning to normal, if it hasn’t already, right?
Well, it hasn’t.
Our house is just way too small for us, for our things. I just can’t possibly find homes for any of my kids’ things already, let alone new stuff and the old stuff, too. I just feel.. trapped. Do you feel that way, sometimes? I really just don’t know what to do about it. And because I feel trapped, such as I do, I can’t seem to get a routine going again. I am struggling to get things accomplished that need to be done, or to find my groove. My mojo. My juice, yo.
{sigh}
Be sure to check out this week’s motivation, I’m going to need all the help I can get. Will you help me?
Stop panicking, and do one thing at a time, one room at a time.√
Repeat previous line over and over again until it sinks in.√
Rome wasn’t built in a day, repeat it some more, dammit.√
Create a new New Years resolutions post and update last one
Grocery shopping/print coupons/list for this week√√√

Work out on EAS Active More Workoutsall week* (Halfway done with my 6-week challenge, and lo-ving it!)√√√√√√
*Weigh in tomorrow!
all week*Today’s motivation – is to just settle down, and BREATHE a second. Last week was focus, and look where it got me? Panicked. Panic-central. Panic MckPanicson, in fact. Not that I wasn’t motivated, mind you, but how can you be motivated when you’re practically smothered in… stuff? This week, I’m just going to take a breather, breathe-in, breathe-out, as many times as I possibly can until I don’t feel so smothered anymore. Then, maybe, perhaps I’ll be able to figure out some sort-of puzzle-piecing scheme to make this all fit into our midget house. In the meantime, breathing is gonna have to suffice.

Would you like to join us this week for To-Do Tuesday? Start with just a few things. Don’t over-do it your first couple of times. You’ll grow to become a list-a-holic later, start small now, though, k?
Just so you know, you can join us at anytime, it doesn’t have to be on Tuesdays – the list will go up every Tuesday for you to link to, but you can make your list and link to us at any point in the week!
Remember, with “To-Do Tuesday“, we’re attacking our to-do lists each week, blogging about our lists and what we’ve got going on, and sharing it with each other to help keep each other accountable. Everyone should come back here to link up in the MckLinky as the central “To-Do Tuesday Hub” so we can visit who’s participating and offer encouragement to each other throughout the week. Don’t forget to add the “To-Do Tuesday” button to your post, linking back to this post!
Let’s continue to cross items off our list as we go and help support each other in completing our lists! Don’t forget my useful HTML tutorial on how to effectively “cross-out” or √ “check off” your items on your to-do list!
