I decided a few weeks ago that I would try and consider my house work, homeschool , other daily chores and mother responsibilities as part of my “day job”. I know that may sound strange but it is really helping me stay focused.

I used to get on the internet (working) in the morning and that always turned out really bad because I would end up spending way to much time on it and neglect other things. So I decided if I view my day time chores as a job then maybe it would help. It has helped even though my day job doesn’t really end at all. I decided I would not go on the internet until after 5pm. I have to really try hard not to get online at all because it’s so easy to get caught up in work.

This is a part of my efforts in getting organized. I also want to get up before my kids and get some things done like reading and devotionals. It’s much easier to do things when the kids are not making noise. We will see how it goes.
