What to Write?

Hello all!!

I have been struggling with what to write on here. Nothing exciting going on in the Timoteo house. However, that is good news? It is nice to have that down time, to not been running from one place to the next. I guess in a sense " I am stopping to smell the roses."

However, I want to one day take this blog and make it into a book. I want it to serve as a journal in a sense. I think too often that we think the boring and mundane is not an interesting thing to write. However, all the blogs that I am obsess with talk about the day to day details of their life. It is what fascinates me. It helps me feel normal.

Some of the thoughts that have been going through my mind as a young new housewife now is that I need a little structure. This is what I mean by this....To often I wake up in the morning and just kind of lull around the house, playing on the computer, watching TV, and before I know it it is night and I really can not account for my day. Now I have always been a very productive person. I have always liked that about myself. So I was thinking about how could I make it where I get more stuff done in the day but I am not running around like a chicken with its head cut off. What came to mind is to have kind of like a chore chart. Now I don't know if I am actually going to make a chart, but I would like to make some type of outline. I think I would like to do something like....


Monday=Dusting




















Tuesday=Vacuuming




















Wednesday = bathrooms



















Thursday=laundry













Friday=cars



















I just can not take not doing anything all day long. Now I know most of you probably have stones in your hands ready to cast them. I am not wishing that my day was chalk full of chores and errands. I just know if order for me to not become a lazy couch potato I need to have a little structure. Okay I feel much better now after getting that off my chest.

This is such a great idea. I have such a tough time staying on top of things. I bet making a certain day about a certain task would really help.

Thanks for the fantastic idea! :D

I think this is a great idea to have a set chore list! This is exactly what I would do if I was a housewife. If not, I'd spend all day laying on the couch reading (like I did this weekend!).

Thanks for visiting your mom, she is a special and super sweet lady!
