Here are the things that I'm not worried about at this point. We are all human, and our time is limited. There are only a certain number of things any one person can do in a given week, so something has to give. Here are the things that I'm not worried about at this point.
1. Cooking from Scratch. My family is hard enough to please when it comes to food. I struggle each week simply getting a decent menu plan together. Until I get better at planning food, I feel it gives me a bit of a break to use cooking helps.
2. Doing my hair and makeup everyday. I want to be able to do this, I really do, but I don't want to get up early enough to do this along with my devotional, my exercise, and my daily planning. So, again, something has to give :). Until I can discipline myself to get up earlier, a ponytail is just going to have to suffice for some days.
3. Crafts. I want to be crafty, I want to make things by hand, but the time is just not there. I don't have a lot of knowledge in how to do things like this, so I'm learning a lot from the very beginnings and that is time consuming. So, for now, these will be regulated to a small part of my week.
4. Gardening. It might sound like a strange one, but my family is big on gardening, so I really want to try to do this, but it's another thing that I don't have the time to put it it right now.
Those are all that I have come up with so far. I'm sure I will come up with more as I go along, but this is good for now. Mostly, my goal with this is to simply give myself permission to NOT do everything. I'm not SuperMom or Wonder Woman, and I cannot accomplish it all. And that's okay :).
