Planning my day

Ok, I am finally going to get organized. I am tired of a messy house with nothing getting done. I’m tired of eating out, and our budget can’t take any more of that, either. I’m compiling a list of ‘daily’ to-do’s, in the hope that seeing it written out will help me get it done. Here’s a sample from my list:

Make bed

Read Scriptures

15 Minute declutter

Load/Empty/Run Dishwasher

Wipe Kitchen counters

Plan/Make dinner

Exercise

Writing

Blogging

Crafting

Tidy bedroom

Some of the items on the list are personal, such as reading scriptures. Some of the items will keep us fed and clean, and some of them are for my own personal improvement (like crafting). Then again, some of it, like blogging and writing, are for my job. I am a freelance writer, and I have to do a certain amount of writing each day.

Sometimes I think I overshoot and put too many things on my list, which overwhelms me and prevents me from accomplishing everything I need to. I don’t know. Quite a bit of it needs to get done. Any thoughts on how you manage to get everything done you need to in order to organize your life?
