Administration

So today is my day to organize my life. Literally. I am sitting down and making out a list of everything I need to do in my week and then scheduling it accordingly. As I've been working more, my house has gotten dirtier, my kids have gotten dirtier, my refrigerator has gotten emptier, my checkbook has gone unbalanced. Not to mention that it's been ages since I've utilized my membership to the local children's museum or our free zoo. I am expecting myself to do all the things I did as a stay at home mom, even though I am no longer a stay at home mom!

So as I go through this process, I'm learning something about myself. I'm not as disciplined as I'd like to believe. The only thing I'm necessarily disciplined about is my fitness. And honestly, the more I look at that, it's not discipline, it's addiction. I'm on some sort of crack. And I think I've given that crack to a few of my current clients. It's exciting to see them make progress and get healthy, but I think we all need some sort of balance in our lives.

So here's to being healthy physically, emotionally, spiritually and relationally.

And living in a house that's not scattered with cheerios and ground-in cottage cheese.
