Really, my mind has been overwhelmed lately. So much stuff just rolling around in my noggin' and I've had a hard time focusing on getting it onto paper. I've been working on a schedule for our days and yet it hasn't quite come to fruition yet. I feel like I finally have our school day working so now I'm trying to figure out how to get other stuff done in the day too!
So, yesterday, I filled two sheets of paper, front and back, with everything from what I need to do today to songs I'd like to sing, to projects that need to get done. I did what I call a Brain Dump. No order, no list, just sprawled handwriting of everything that popped into my brain . .. everything that's been floating around in there for weeks that I keep forgetting to do.
This month I don't have a pretty list but I do have a few "I hope's" . .
1) I hope that we can get the yard cleaned up and everything put away for winter. (Darryl actually started on that yesterday)
2) I hope that we can get the garage cleaned up and things stored away properly.
3) I hope to give Josh a good, fun birthday celebration, to plan Nate's birthday celebration in December, to plan our Christmas (from gift lists to activities) month, and to plan Thanksgiving.
4) I hope to have a fun weekend scrapbooking at the end of the month - accomplishing some tasks such as finishing up year 2014, filing memorabilia in such a way that I can add it to albums, updating the each of the boys albums. and putting into place a way to scrapbooking 2018 better.
5) I hope to do some more cleaning out and organizing.
