Day One Report

So I have a feeling I'll be posting my reports each morning for the previous day. That way I avoid posting before I finish my to-do's for the day and having a post that says "I haven't done 'x' yet, but will before I go to bed....." Yeah. Right. I know me, it wouldn't get done! So, posting each morning what actually happened the day before.

Also, that way I can also remind myself each day why I need to get things done and that I do really want to reach my goals. Win-win, if I do it well.

So, yesterday was Monday, and my first day working on having a better 30 years. Goal A? Check! Goal B? Check! Goal C?....semi-check...which is a fail overall because I'm channeling Yoda, and there is no try, only do and do not. I got a load of laundry done, I got it dried, I just didn't get it folded and put away. Which I knew was the part that would trip me up with that goal. That's why "fold and put away" was bold and italic on my last post. So fail. But two out of three for my first day is better than the day before, so I'm calling it a win.

I got a good 40 minutes of cleaning and tidying done in my bedroom. I should have taken a before picture, but I hadn't realized that I wanted to post pictures of my progress when I was cleaning, so I just have the finished space. I re-arranged my furniture a bit, and I got everything clean, and the trash taken out. There's no before photo, but I'll just tell you, you could only see the floor in a path from my door to my bed. Yucky. It's much better now. Today? I want to get the other half of the room done (the half you can't see in the photo...lol)

So, today! I need to get my new habits done. I also need to go to the bank and to the post office....I REALLY need to go to the post office. I've been meaning to ship my sister a box for over two months, time to get it done. Getting out of the house with both a toddler and a newborn is challenging. Wish me luck!
