Doing better at a few things

Ok, so most of my Friday list is done :) Tomorrow when Ellie is down for a sleep, I'll do the appliance cupboard and mop the floors!

Time for me to do the plan for the coming week I think. I'm going to put less on each day and see if that helps in getting it done - maybe I was being a tad unrealistic??

Here goes.......

• wash nappies (just a reminder of which days)
• 15min tidy - lounge, dining and kitchen

Tuesday

• container cupboard
• cut everything for the NY swap
• decide on what to make for the 2010 January challenge - 'Something for me'
• 15min tidy - lounge, dining and kitchen
• load of washing
  

Wednesday

• sew for NY swap
• wash nappies
• take Taylor to rollaways!

Thursday

I am logging my dietary intake daily at my fitness pal and have so far done it for 15 days straight. I remember reading somewhere that it takes 30 days to get rid of a bad habit and 60 days to forge a new one.

My fitness/health goals for this week are:

• >30mins exercise every day
• log daily at mfp
• drink 2.5L water daily
• use the cross trainer >2 times

I am really pleased with the way things have been going over the past couple of weeks :) I've been exercising regularly, eating well and drinking plenty of water so my goals are simply to maintain that plus add in the cross trainer - it will NOT beat me hehehe

My creative goals for this coming week:

• sew something with a pattern (or strictly follow a tute)
• cut all pieces for the NY swap before starting sewing!
• keep my sewing cabinet at least usable (instead of a huge big mess)
  

It's not failing if you keep going, right?

Ok, so this week so far has gone completely NOT to plan!

Tomorrow was going to be a trip to the zoo but I've decided to do that next week instead and tomorrow catch up around the house :)

So, here is the NEW plan for tomorrow January 15th

1. Washing - wash two loads, bring all washing in, fold and put away - one done!
   
2. Meal plan - 14 meals for the fortnight and shopping list to suit done!!
   
3. Dining room -  sweep, chuck crap, organise sewing area (this is a BIG job and I've done half so far)
   
4. Floors - sweep and mop (will be done after the kids are in bed tonight)
   
5. Clean bathrooms - showers, toilets, vanities, bath
   
6. Appliance cupboard - sort and wipe out
7. Bake something with the kids for snacks 
8. Do the shopping
   

There, that's enough for tomorrow. I will log in during the day and cross things off the list as I do them :)

Oh and what DID I do from my lists this week???

• sort out the linen cupboard - in desperate need of being done! I'm thinking I'll follow the hint of putting the sheet sets inside the matching pillow case so things don't get separated
• plan what I am making for the EB new year sewing swap

Gee, didn't get much done at all did I!!??
