Carrie, I can understand the suggestion of not knowing where to start with dreams and goals. I spend so much time wanting to do things and being too busy to do them, but when push comes to shove and I actually have the time, I never do the things I want to because I don’t know where to begin!

I don’t know what it is about alarms, but I always fly out of bed with my heart going a mile a minute as soon as an alarm goes off. I HATE HATE HATE alarms!! If I don’t have an alarm set, then I am really sluggish and slow to get moving. Even with an alarm, I have to ease my way into the day, despite getting up immediately. I have to allow at least an hour to get myself ready and out of the house, or else I feel really disjointed and end up leaving something behind or forgetting to do something.

I have recently given up on my “save the world” mentality and stopped going for the green housekeeping alternatives. I have bought quick and easy cleaning products to help me with the cleaning, as well as encourage the kids to clean more. I still try to be environmentally friendly when I can, but I have to acknowledge that I cannot deal with things the way I would like to and I have to make some concessions in order to get things done.
