Ok since my issue is keeping my kids from destroying and keeping them  happy and from making messes and keeping my house clean. Anyway my idea. I am going to make sure every door and drawer is child locked and get baby gates that I can easily get through to lock them out of places that don't have doors. Keep them upstairs if I am upstairs or downstairs if I am downstairs. My issue is that I get really distracted by things and then my kids are running off and going and getting into things and pulling things out, First I need to get this house clean!!!

 

Ok so I have started this.

 

I  have been listing the things that need to get done and trying to do it that way. This overwhelms me a ton. So the new idea.

 

I am going to list what I get done. I am going to motivate myself by posting my done things. I want more and more done so I can post and list them!

 

I know a lot of you are reading my share posts and are motivating me and are giving me great tips and are cheering me on.

 

I am going to list and post a picture of things when I get them done.

 

So I am working on this and I have the boys room almost done I just need my husband to move something. So I will take a picture when its done!!!

 

Hope I am not bugging anyone that reads my posts by this. I just need a place that understands me and will stand by me and actually cares that I acomplish these tasks and is happy with what I am doing and is trying to help me!

 

Thanks everyone and thanks for helping me stay on track!!!

 

Oh yeah I am taking Adderall for those that have asked and Zolft to manage myself but I still do not have much energy during the day. The doctor has given my something to try for sleeping. I am going to start using that again so I am will be getting better sleep and I drank a energy drink today to see if that ups my energy.

 

 

Anyway so I will be back with my first done item when I am done and just go from there!!

 

Thanks for being there for me all of you!!!!

I really have no one else to share this with that even understands me so its nice to have a place I can turn to and show off my accomplishments and everything!!

 

So I might just make a daily list everyday of everything I get done and keep up on it and have a nice list lf done things each day. Some things I will even take pictures of for my own motivation and so when I need to work on something again I can see the finished product and want to do that again. Then I can have a nice picture everyday to motivate myslef!
