A More Productive Year

Okay, I know the photo has nothing to do with the title! Well, that's not entirely true - last year that was me, trying to accomplish something and going about it in a difficult way! I am happy to say that I have started this year off in a good way. I have made a few changes in my daily habits that are making life easier for me and things are not piling up. Any mail that I get is dealt with immediately. If there is a bill to be paid, it is paid and filed away the moment I open the envelope. I plan to declutter my entire house, and have found an app to help me. Yes, of course, there's an app for that! It works well with the Flylady system, which I have been using for a few years now. The app is called "HomeRoutine". So far I am finding it easy to customize, and am able to feel a huge sense of accomplishment every day. I suppose it has a lot to do with earning stars for every task accomplished, and I am a big kid at heart ;) No more wasting huge amounts of daylight in front of the computer, I set a timer for 15 minutes of email in the morning. Pinterest is reserved for evening, when the sun is down, and my energy is low. So far, so good!
