DAY THREE - time...where to get more? Can you buy it somewhere?

So yesterday was a blur!  I am hoping that I am able to accomplish more today.  I wasn't able to read any further in the book yesterday, but I did read the first section to my husband last night at...about midnight, when we were finally settling down.  I am really excited about getting this momentum going.  I am just hoping that I get it going enough for when the time comes that I have no motivation that it kind of keeps going until the crash is over.

It feels like there are a million things I need to get done today.  I need to:
1. check my celebration calendar to make sure I have cards for any family and friend celebrations that are in the beginning of June so I am not late.
2. send an email to my Girl Scout Troop about our meeting next week.
3. set up an Open House for my stamping business (please see other blog for information about Sassy Stampin' Girl) and send an email with my class information.
4. call back the college I am trying to schedule a pre-admission meeting with
5. send out my daughters assessment to the school (Jon and I ended up working on this last night which was why I didn't have time to read).
6. Mail out the paperwork for the money that is going to help me pay for school.
7. Call back Cross Cultural Solutions to talk about funding for volunteering abroad.
8. Pick up my stamping "office" which is still a disaster from the workshop I had last weekend!

and then there is the normal, everyday things...
9. do at least a load of laundry because I didn't get to any yesterday.
10. put away the dishes and clean up the kitchen.
11. make the kids beds and put the messiness on their beds (so they can pick up their rooms easier).
12. feed/walk the animals (we have a turtle, a cat and a dog)
13. neaten up the kids bathroom

oh yeah and that doesn't count...
14. preparing dinner so it can simmer all day
15. reading the emails and do any follow-up from my upline for my stamping business
16. try to catch up on at least one lesson from my business coach

ALL before 2:45 when my youngest one gets off the bus.  OK, so not quite a million, but that's a lot!  Tomorrow starts my mentoring program through the Smokin' Hot Mama club, so I want to be prepared so I really wanted to finish reading that book before then, but I don't think that's possible.  Maybe I just won't sleep tonight!

I have been trying to think of different areas/aspects of my life that I want to work on to improve or do differently so here is the beginning of my list, although I am sure this will change or at least there will be additions over the next month as I try to prepare myself for a kick-ass second half to 2012:
#1. Health! Eating better, exercise often and increase water intake
#2. College - need to go back and finish my degree.  I have four years of college and nothing to show for it! Unfortunately two of those years were at a technical school so I can't do much with those credits, but I have two years and am very close to an associates...i will get into more specifics when i lay out my goals and my plan over the next few weeks.
#3. Community Service/Giving Back - its something that brings me much joy to be able to help someone do something they want to do or get something they want or need.  I need....ok, no I WANT to get back into Rotary.  I have missed it the last two years...

Ok, well that's a start anyway.  I'm gonna head out to get some of those million things done today!  


Take care and remember...
