So I totally fell off the bandwagon. I did half of the baby steps! But alas, I let sickness and the holidays defeat my first real attempt. But that's okay! As flylady says: just jump in where you are. I did decide to start over again though because I really want to make shining my sink a real habit. And I've been doing it since January 1st! Huzzah! 3 days of shiny sink. It is making me feel better.
We're still recovering, and it's been hard for me to find the motivation to do anything productive. I keep getting excited about setting and reaching goals, but then I go to sleep and when I wake up I loose focus and don't really get any energy until about 5 at night. And then by the time we're done eating, I'm done putting the baby to bed, etc. it's at least 9 or 10. So I get some things done and then go to bed at 1 or 2... and thus the cycle continues. I really should learn how to be more of a morning person. I also know that I need to accept the fact that I am a new mom, and this is all okay. As long as I get to spend time with my darling baby, that is what matters most. Baby steps and balance, right? If I can get into some routines I imagine I won't be so stressed about it all.
Anyway, I'm rambling again. What else would you expect at 1:15 in the am? Happy New Year! One day my blog will be a little more exciting... ;)
