Some of the other things that have changed are: (1) My house is more organized than it has ever been. (2) My kitchen is regularly clean. (4) I am not fussing at my children nearly as much as I think I was before. (3) I am energetic and HAPPY with life as it is.
Ok, Althea, why are you posting all this sappy happy stuff? I want to encourage you to find that thing that you need to make positive changes in your life. If you feel tired all the time. If you feel angry all the time. If you just want the days to end. Make a change. For me, it was getting organized (with the help of a most wonderful cousin that is a wiz at organizing). That was the first step that changed everything for me. I felt physically free after this change was made. This was the weight that I was carrying around every day (but that's another post). I was no longer going to bed with the thought of what room I needed to clean up in the morning or what dishes I needed to clean just so I could cook breakfast. Now I can go to bed with bed on my mind only. And would you believe, now I'm getting up six days per week at 4:40AM. WHAT?!!
