Oh, how I need to do that right now! I was so pleased to see that Crystal over at Biblical Womanhood is doing the same, and invited us to join her. She'll have weekly accountability checks, which is something I need. So...we're starting with the basics here. Five items for a consistent morning routine to start the day off in the right direction. Here are mine:
1. Get up, take meds, shower and get dressed
2. Start a load of laundry
3. Tea Time with the King: Bible reading/prayer/pregnancy tea
4. Breakfast w/ kids, empty/re-load dishwasher
5. Start school
I'd love to have a set time for rising each morning, but with my pregnancy coupled with intermittent insomnia, I've got to sleep when I can. So...suffice it to say that my ideal time to rise would be 6am, but I'm hoping to be up before 7 at the latest. I'm excited to see how the Lord will enable me to be more productive at home simply by getting back into a regular routine (Which I USED to be quite good at, but have let it slide...)! Once these things are consistent, I look forward to adding some afternoon and evening routines, as well. Time to go...computer time is not one of the first five things for my morning! :-)
