Today's Thoughts - Focus, Balance...

As I was driving to Bible Study today, my thoughts were scrambling around in my head. After getting through and leading Bible Study, I realized a few things. With both of my kids now in camp full time (and soon school full time), what should I do with my 6 hours of free time? I used to be happy just doing nothing but even that feels a little empty after a while. There has to be something more to look forward to each day besides my cup of coffee, Regis and Kelly and Days of Our Lives.

So, after thinking about it, I guess there are 4 areas in my life that I should probably work on.

1. Physically - Even though I hate to work out, after I do, at least I feel like I accomplished something in the day. Hard to do but I never regret it once I do.
2. Spiritually - This should probably be #1 but it's actually harder to do than working out. But, once again, daily devotional and quiet times...hard to do but never regret it once I do.
3. Creatively - I am a hobby Stampin' Up demonstrator. I have so many rubber stamps that my basement closet, upstairs closet ...nothing can hold all of them. I probably have over 7000 stamps and tons of cricut cartridges. I should probably try and make 1 card a day or 1 scrapbook page a day.
4. My job (housewife) - eh...nothing more to say here. Endless job. I can clean the kitchen every day but once people come home, it's always a mess again. I've thought of leaving a mess in the family room because it's only going to get messy again but believe or not...a mess CAN get messier.

Hopefully, by keeping a log of these 4 things every day, I can get something done! Or ... at least feel like I got something done in the day! Wish me luck!
