Putting it Out There

My dream schedule, the incredible balancing act, etch it in stone so that everyone can see, and watch it come to pass, the way I would like to live my life:

5:00 am    Rise and spend an hour with God
6:00 am    Jog
6:50 am    Shower
7:00 am    Get the kids up, make their breakfast, cuddle with them
8:15 am    Drive the kids to school
9:00 am    Write
11:30 am   Lunch and emails, etc.
12:00 pm   Write
1:30 pm     Focus on charitable commitments
2:15 pm     Pick kids up from school
3:00 pm     Homework, ice skating, cuddle, games=Mommy time
6:00 pm     Dinner
6:45 pm     Showers, read with the kids
8:30 pm     Get kids to bed
8:45 pm     Read
10:00 pm   Sleep

Of course, I'll need a few hours out of the week to handle the business side of writing. I would like to have lunch with my mom once a week, or have our nails done, something that gives us quality time together.

While I am doing some of the things I listed, I need to make a serious shift of time and commitments. And with the New Year coming on, there's no better time to start, right?

My blog is my stone tablet.



We all have a blank slate. In this circumstance, let each of us be the kid who won't share his crayons.
