Productive means less computer time

I've been very busy the last few days, which means less computer time. I really haven't minded. Here's what my days have looked like this week:

Wake up
Bible reading
Exercise
Shower
Breakfast
Cleaning
Organization project work (some small project in a different room each day)
Lunch
Japanese studies
Quilting
Dinner
More Japanese studies
Read
Bed

I've really enjoyed this schedule. I'm getting a lot done and feel like I'm progressing in both my house cleaning and my studies. I'm starting to stress about getting my Grandpa's quilt done, but that's my fault because I procrastinated on it for so long. So now I'm trying to work on it every single day. If I have time tomorrow, I'll post pictures of the progress.

Tomorrow's plan: Mostly the same as the above, but I have a lot more cooking to do. In the morning, I'll be baking a pumpkin so that I can make pumpkin pie in the afternoon. I'll also be putting together a lasagna for Sabbath afternoon so that all we have to do is bake it after church. I'll probably shorten my Japanese studies to compensate for the additional cooking time or I'll just have to clean very fast!

An update on my mom - We're sitting and waiting. The insurance company is slow about pre-authorization so she can't schedule anything yet. All we can do is wait and pray.

Cassandra,

Looks like you have a productive homemaking schedule that you actually like and can work with. I've made several schedules, but my problem is that I can't seem to find one I actually "like" and can stick with on a regular basis. Sigh.

Anyway, I'm still thinking about you and your mom. I'm sorry about the insurance madness. Health care insurance polices can be such a pain, ugh!

Blessings,

I am glad that you have been able to find a schedule that works so well for you! My family is still working for that, lol ;o) I am finding the biggest thing that are in my way are exuses! Keep it up! I look forward to seeing how your quilt is coming along....I have a quilt I need to get finished as well...started it over a year ago!

Blessings! ♥

Thanks, all! I like having a basic flow to my day. My schedule isn't set it in stone and it's not assigned times. I just move from one thing to the next as it gets completed. It's working well!
