I am in T-R-O-U-B-L-E

Sort of. Not really. I have fallen back into a rut. Not really doing what I should be.And husband is not super happy about that.
And I can't really blame him.
Last night I decided that was all changing.
I use to cook every night. Mostly home made goodness. But then that got boring...or really it got to be to "hard". So I slacked.
Then my chores suffered.
My school work is suffering.
And well so is my waist line....but its currently raining and I don't feel good about taking monkey on workouts in the rain. *Does anyone use those stroller rain protectors? Do they work? Does it help keep some heat in?*
So this morning as I was waking up I came up with a brilliant plan.
I am creating a schedule. For myself. Literally. Like in school when the teacher would write...
8:15-9:30 Language Skills
9:30-10:15 Math Facts...you get the idea...right?
I bought the cutest planner at target a few months ago so I could write down appointments and such. Then I just stopped. So that will be starting again.
I will be planning out our meals. Again. So when we go grocery shopping, I know exactly what I need for the  two weeks. And luckily there are SO many wonderful food blogs and websites that I will finally be starting to use. Again.
I decided I am the type of person that NEEDS a schedule. I need to have a plan. I feel calmer and more at ease. And I am completely ok with that. It is ok to need structure,schedules,plans. Not everyone has to be a fly by the seat of your pants type of person.

So, I started planning menus out, and let me tell you, it is SO MUCH EASIER now. I think you'll have a much easier time if you keep it up.
