A Healthy Day

So I often think about lists

yes often I do this

I list out everything

It makes me feel good

My favorite lists are usually ones

that if I did what was on the list

then I would be ultimately healthy

the best mom, wife and friend

have the cleanest house

and most importantly

fit God in there too

My list looks like this...

If I could do all of this in one day

and then repeat it

day after day

then I

would be rich

in many ways....

1. Make time for God through a daily devotion in the garden

2. Make sure I pray with the kids daily

3. Eat five servings of Fruits and Veggies

4. Make sure the kids get five servings of Fruits and Veggies

5. Brush my teeth twice and floss

6. Make sure the kids brush and floss twice

7. Take my vitamins and health juice

8. Make sure the kids take their vitamins and health juice

9. Have one on one time, quality time with each child

10. Drink 8 glasses of water a day

11. Have the right amount of fiber and protein and calcium

11. Not overindulge on sweets or junk food

12. Have a clean house by doing everything on my cleaning chart

(yea I know)

13. Have all my email read, filed and actually use the information that I read

14. Blogged, read others blogs

15. Exercised

16. Take a shower shave, wash my face get dressed etc (really this is on my list)

17. Only drink one glass of wine

18. Not get stressed of flustered with anyone and be on time

19 Write a thank you note

20 Have tea at four

21. Make my husband feel loved and appreciated

22. Have my jobs organized and running smoothly

23. Having my volunteer done

24. Get to bed by 10, reading a magazine, cozy and lights out at 10:30

Yes, these 24 simple request, if I could do these 24 things everyday

I think I would be rich

Maybe I should focus on just one a day

Just one of them

and then by the end of the month I should have them all down

I wonder if anyone feels they can do all of these things

everyday

I really doubt it

I really just want to do it all in one day

just one

I keep telling myself that tomorrow will be the day

that I do all 24 things...in one day

We will see

I will let you know

Until then, I will continue to balance

and do what I can do

at that moment

to keep this family afloat

knowing God is watching

and holding us

every step of

the way
