Project Week

Well.....We were supposed to officially start school for the girls this week. We have been so busy recently that we are now VERY behind in household chores. We also are still organizing our homeschool room so we can find things. We have some extra household repairs to do now, which I won't get into on this Blog. I think I will write about it on our other one. :) Anyway, We have decided to take this week as a project week so we can catch up, organize & plan schedules for school, chores, meals, etc. 

I am not really a planner, or a scheduled person by nature. To be honest, the mere thought of having a schedule makes me want to run away screaming. I have finally come to the realization that without any form of schedule, we are wasting valuable time doing nothing. :(  The Lord has started convicting me to start planning my days so that they won't be so chaotic & stressful. I honestly can't believe I just wrote that. :) That is the exact reason I have put off having schedules. I was fearful that with a schedule, I would constantly feel stressed about having to follow it. I am now seeing how we can just plan an order to our day & follow that, rather than a strict time schedule to adhere to. :) So, I am actually looking forward to spending this week, looking at how to plan our days. I will be praying that the Lord will show me how He wants us to spend our days and also praying for His help in following the plan. I tend to have a hard time following through with things. : (  

I am going to be thinking on what things we are wasting time with and work on a plan to have more balance in our lives. I will post that later. :) 

Have a great day! :)
