Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

Summer Schedule Update

July 9, 2020

Okay, so the last two weeks I got off schedule and my routines. I can use my busy-ness as an excuse but I know better than that. This week I realized all that didn’t get done last week and have spent the time catching up but also sticking to my routines. For instance, I decided to keep on my usual laundry schedule even though some stuff needed to be done. I do towels on Thursday and I kept to that so I could stay on schedule. I know that I do better when I stick to my routines. It just makes life easier. Tomorrow I’m shutting out the extra noise I took on and get back to what I need to do. I feel better already.

In other news I decided that I need my own monthly focus. It is something Flylady added in years ago (not part of the original plan) but I never do them because most of them I do already. So, I decided I needed a focus for something I wanted to make a habit and this month (drumroll please) it’s going to be going to bed at 10pm and getting up at 6am every day. That means setting an alarm. I haven’t gotten up to an alarm in a long time because I bought a new clock years ago and couldn’t figure the damn thing out so I ditched it. For now, I’ll use my phone.

My skincare routine is humming along – the added addition of the Glow Recipe Watermelon Sleeping Mask has been a good one. It doesn’t irritate and it seems to be helping. I also ordered the Milk Makeup Vegan Cleanser because I’m out and added the moisturizer because both were on sale at Sephora and with my extra $10 off it was an even better deal. My toner is the Neutrogena Alcohol Free Toner and while I don’t love it, it’ll do until I can find something better. Oops – almost forgot about my SPF! I’m using Supergoop’s Daily Correct CC Cream in Fair/Light. It’s 100% mineral sunscreen and it covers my redness so it’s a win for me.

As for menu planning well, I’m planning and sticking to that fairly well for dinners. I still need to add tracking in but I have started eating lunch and that’s something that went missing awhile back. I’ll take that as progress.

And that’s where I’m at right now. Slow and steady will get me where I need to go. Sometimes it feels really slow but it’s better to go slow and build up as you can because those are the habits that will stick. Go me. :0)
