This past week...update

Well, this week was pretty much the hardest 7 days of my life. So, I didn't do so well keeping up with my chores. I really slacked on the dishes, especially which I feel pretty awful about because that really was the one thing I had to do. But basically, I just didn't want to do anything. So normally, I would make a new goal for the week, but I'm going to try again with my 1 goal of doing the dishes.
While not everything in my life is fixed, I do have a better handle on it all, so hopefully I can get a better handle on my chores as well. I will hopefully post a to do list soon. There will be a lot on it!

Review

I just want you to know that I did do the dishes last night. I waited till the very last second, but I did them. And thanks to going to lunch w/ my mom and then working so late, I have no dishes to do tonight. Well, okay I have 1 spoon, but really I'm not doing 1 spoon. That can wait. I'm giving myself that.

Day 1 of my new life

Well, maybe it's not entirely a new life but it's pretty darn close. I have a new home, new job, new schedule. And I'm super excited about it. I've lived in my apartment close to 2 weeks (WOW that went by fast!) and now that I seem to be unpacked and settled, not to mention the fact that I started my new job/schedule today, it's time to go back to the re-implement the plan I had going. But I'm going to ease my way back into it the same way I did it before.
So goal 1 is doing the dishes every night.
With 1 person, it shouldn't be that hard, but sometimes I think to myself, 'there's only 1 glass and 1 plate, maybe a fork or spoon. They can wait till tomorrow.'
Well, they can't wait. I need to do them every night before that one glass and plate turn into a big pile of dishes that I really won't want to do.

And yes, tonight I did the dishes.
