Organizing Everything!!

I love lists. I probably make at least 5 or 6 lists everyday: a work to-do list, a personal to-do list, a shopping list for P, D, and the pup individualized for the particular store you find the items, and a to-do when I finally get home list. I never complete all of them, I usually only get to one a day (the shopping ones), and then on the weekends just clean/organize everything that I can in the few hours I have when D is willing to let me. The result is a house that looks like a tornado hit and still isn't completely unpacked after moving in a YEAR ago!

My plan is to organize my organization. I just ordered P90X and I plan on waking up super early every morning to do my workout, eat a healthy breakfast, and go to work with more energy than I am these days. (That takes care of personal goal 1: lose the rest of the baby weight). When I get home I'm going to work on organizing the house. But I'm going to focus on one room at a time. Tonight will be D's room. He's decided that the crib is the most awful place in the world, so last night I "converted" the crib into a toddler bed and put a twin bed up against it. He (after about 45 minutes of trying to climb into the twin bed with me and screaming his head off when I put him back in his bed), slept in the "toddler bed" from about 11-7 WITHOUT waking up, while Charlie and I slept in the twin. Tonight I'm going to try and organize the rest of his things in there so it looks a little more like a room despite half of it being full of beds.

I'll post pictures tonight when I finish (if I finish).

After (or as a break), I'm going to make dinner, and lunch for tomorrow. We're only going to eat healthy food and no more eating out or cheating. I think on tonight's menu is halibut. And finally, I'm going to attempt to get to bed early so I can practice waking up early while I wait for P90X and go for a morning run with the pup!

Here's to hoping I can do this!!
