I don’t know about you but I often find it hard to stay motivated, especially in the cold winter. It just seems like the cold, snow and dark days of this season make it hard to stay motivated and creative. I am happy to say that my goal to work smarter, not harder this year is helping me stay on point and get things done. I am not saying that I am crossing everything off my daily to do lists but I am trying and that is half the battle.
So the plan this year was to work smarter not harder right? Well part of that plan was to not do housework on the weekends or at least do as little as possible. Last weekend was a trial run and let’s just say it didn’t really go like I planned so I thought this weekend would be better. I at least thought I would give it a champion effort.
So how am I doing?

So I have gotten back to writing myself to do lists. I have managed to knock off a bunch of stuff from this weeks to do lists so far BUT today I failed on that task. For a good reason mind you. As many of you know I work late nights — I work in a radio newsroom and don’t get home until about 1 a.m and I get up with the kids in the morning to get them off to school.
