Trying to Establish Routine

Today is the last day of Spring Break. I had a blast with Little Guy being home but honestly, I’m ready for him to go back to school. With the conference and the baby I have enough to keep me busy. Entertaining a 5 year old is fun but I need to get some thing accomplished!

That being said, I am making some great strides on the conference. There is still a lot to be done but every day I chip a little more away. Today I had to talk myself off a cliff with this little note to self…

Note to self: DEEP breath.. complete one task at a time and do what you can when you can. No sense in freaking out.

Sometimes I have a habit of getting really overwhelmed which gets me distracted and I end up wasting time instead of getting something accomplished. After I wrote that note, I sent Little Guy out to play and focused on accomplishing SOMETHING which turned into another thing and then another. That small refocussing exercise does wonders for me.

So does having a routine and I’m desperate for one right now. I’m not working out and I miss it. My body misses it.

Tomorrow I’m going to try to get up, feed the kindergartner, get him on the bus and then head out for a short run. I’m not sure if this routine is going to work for me but I’m going to try it on for size. If it doesn’t, then I’ll try something else. Sometimes it’s a trial and error thing before you find one that fits your schedule right.

I’ll figure it out.

I always do.

The food journal looks good today. I was going to post it but honestly, I need sleep and the baby is fussy–we are trying to establish a routine with him too.

You can see the journal on twitter by clicking here. I’m off to put on my running clothes so I have no excuses tomorrow morning.

Yes I sleep in them. ;)
