Motivate Me Monday! My Schedule! Link Up Yours!

Happy Monday! Well, even though my MMM post for today is about my schedule, I have to say that I am truly super motivated about MY BLOGAVERSARY PARTY starting Wednesday! P-A-R-T-Y! Woo hoo! (Check out the AMAZING prize list here!) Okay, back to priorities and a schedule (you know, the fun stuff). First of all, let me show just one reason why I need to have focused priorities and a schedule:

Yep, that’s the dirty laundry…and not even all of it. Scary, I know. But, I shall have no fear – I will defeat this enemy! What is my weapon? Take a look:
We started following this schedule last week and it has been very helpful so far. I know it’s super simple, but I need simple! I’m a simple kind of gal.
Alrighty, I’m ready to see your priorities/schedules – I just love ripping off, uh, I mean, being inspired by your ideas! Do share!
Your Turn!
  • Share some advice, wisdom, practical applications, tips you’ve learned, etc. that you think would benefit and motivate others.

*Make sure to link directly to your MMM post and then link back here (you know, for the link love and all)!

    Thanks for sharing that schedule – I've seen Supernanny make ones before and always thought I would use my time better if I had one too. Maybe someday I'll even be organized enough to participate in M me M!

  6. Tiffany says:

    I'm so impressed with your schedule. I have finally accepted the fact that I'm a "routine person". Every time I try to keep to particular times, I get frustrated. But if I move from one thing to the next on the list it all gets done. Routine is the same as a schedule without the times attached. It must be a mental thing for me.Great post for Monday morning!

Sorry, it's the first time I've ever linked up to anything. I'm still learning.Thanks chickie!

  16. Diann @ The Thrifty says:

    I'm afraid I didn't do an organizing post this week. I am with you when it comes to trying to get things organized. It's something I have been working on a lot lately. It can feel so overwhelming at times. So, I am looking for all the motivation I can find in this area! So, everyone, start posting your great organization methods so I can Steal, Steal, Steal from you! LOL

    Good job Sarah Mae!! Nice schedule! Sice I don't have little ones at home right now, it's too hard for me to maintain a detailed schedule like that – I've tried. Too may things come up for me – phone calls to help with something, a forgotten errand to run, activity schedule changes, etc. So I need to come up with more of a list of what needs to get done each day.I wanted to tell you though that you motivated me to get my priorities in order. Right now, I'm only worrying about the most important – the Lord! If I commit my time to Him first, I am so much more productive during the day.So I did get up early today!! Yay!! Tried for 5:16 AM, but actually got up at 5:50 AM – still – haven't been up that early in a long time. Thanks for re-motivating me – LOL!Have a wonderful day my friend and keep up the good job with the schedule!

    You know, every time I make a schedule I end up chucking it out. Our needs change so often, the schedule needs to be changed. Maybe if I put it on the computer and made it easy to tweak…

  25. His Honeybee says:

    I REALLY need to do your chart! What a fabulous idea! I used to have one that was written up and on my clip board then I allowed myself to get distracted…not good!

  33. Isabel says:

    Your schedule looks great! One things fascinates me though: how do you manage to prepare meals, eat them, and clear kitchen afterwards in 15 minutes per item?? I would need an 45 minutes per item!!

  34. christinnjon says:

    Love your schedule Sarah Mae! I had once put mine on poster board and hung it up. Then it changed and I didn't rewrite it, lol.I typed it up in a nifty chart that a friend of mine actually created (I just plugged my own stuff in). I'll share it next week!

  39. Emily B says:

    Nice schedule! I normally stick pretty close to a schedule, particularly on Mondays to help me get back into weekday routine. This morning I did not. The fantastic grilled ribeyes we had for Mother's Day dinner last night kept reminding me of their presence in the form of major heartburn. The last I heard the clock chime was 1:30 a.m., so I ditched the schedule today in an attempt to conserve enough energy to stay awake until bedtime. LOL!

    I'm incredibly organized, I think that is part of the problem, I get too caught up in the "organizing" lol then don't want to actually do it!

    I SO need a schedule. I have totally let this school year get away from me. Kiddo and I both do so much better with a schedule, and I have become so undisciplined it stinks. Or maybe that's just my laundry.
