When I get busy with life I kind of take one day at a time. This comes back to bite me in the ass quite often. I forget Alyssa needs to be to school early, there is nothing in the house for dinner or we missed another birthday party.
Now that I am back to work (boo hoo) now more than ever, I need to be on top of my game. Thus the need for my resolutions this year. The biggest are my Sunday tasks:
1) Check the calendar for the week- I have an AWESOME calendar system that someday I will share with you. Good thing I did this today, Alyssa has Girl Scouts tomorrow!
2) Meal plan for the week- I am really bad about not planning what we are going to eat for the week then by the time we get home it becomes a take-out night or a fend for yourself night. I feel terrible feeding my kids canned soup for dinner. I have been good for the past 4 weeks. This week looks pretty good and fairly easy:
Sunday - BBQ Hamburgers, chips and dip (not health food but YUM!)
Monday - Beef Taquitos, mexican rice and beans
Tuesday - CROCK POT DAY!!! This week is turkey breast, stuffing, mashed potatoes and roasted brussel sprouts.
Wednesday - Ribs, dilled potatoes and green beans
Thursday - Chicken lasagna
Friday - BLTs with baked french fries and sliced apples
3) Weekly grocery shopping - boy does it feel nice to start the week off with that done!
Now lets just see if I can stick to this plan for at least another month, lol. So far, so good.
Way to go Meg! I'm working on my meal planning skills too, but I'm not doing nearly as well as you.
ReplyDeleteAnd I WANT to see that Calendar system you have!
