All in a day's work

Is it just me or do you find there's just so little time in a day?

I realize that my life right now is just a stage. The more I think about it, I tend to panic...knowing that I have a one-time opportunity to do this job.

I want to have a clean(er)house, healthy meals for my family, crafts and special times with my kids, a balance with social and home life, and then there is being financially responsible with what God has given us.

I feel honoured to be able to love on my family...though lately, I'm feeling stuck. Maybe it's because of our up and coming move or perhaps it's just trying to adjust to hubby's work change, season change and an activity change. Any any rate...stuck I am.

I love spontaneous but I think I'm starting to need more order in my day.

A typical day starts with a workout, shower and devotions until 7am. I love being able to cross off 3 items off my list before my kids are awake. But once they are up, I find it difficult to have order in my home. This afternoon, I want to make a menu list but I really need to wash my floors. I love to cook but it's definitely a struggle and a hassle with kids underfoot. I'm not complaining. I love these treasures that we've been blessed with. I just feel like I'm failing at my job of trying to balancing keeping my family happy, clean and fed.

I would love to start meal planning again, organizing our home, making moments count with my kids and finding stuff we need on sale.

I'd love to hear your ideas of balancing your home life, meal planning and make the most of a busy time of life. I'm all ears!
