Finish What You Started  

Posted by: Charity Gordon in

Time and time again I find myself not finishing what I started. Whether it is a project or simply a new routine...some how I always get off the band wagon. Finish what you started is just about getting back on that wagon. Life circumstances, excuses, and procrastination tend to knock us off track.

Oh dear there are so many I have falling off of. The exercising, healthy eating, organized schooling, house work routines for me and the kids...Man the list could go on and on. For now I choose to focus on getting organized within the home I think then all the others will run a bit smoother.

To help keep me motivated I am reading all I can on getting organized and praying for Gods wisdom and to be energized through out.

What I have started before is working room by room, I fell right off that wagon...That is okay because I am now back on....

The Month of January I will be working on my kitchen/dinning/office area. I will be De-cluttering, cleaning and organizing this space. I want functional, comfortable and clean!

Today I will work in the kitchen area...dishes, counter tops and cabinet spaces will be cleaned and organized. I too will map out my plan for the kitchen and dinning area on the calendar for the rest of the month to keep me moving in that wagon :)

I will keep you posted...That is if I finish what I started! Hope you will join me on finish what you started band wagon.

Thanks for stopping by Simply-R-road-We-Travel :)

On the road again to....

Orderly and clean....

One day at time and one room at a time heading towards better living where one can relax where the better routines are established and things run more smoothly. I want that perfect house nothing falling apart and perfectly clean. Perfect is not realistic though it can be work towards. As long as I except the imperfections I am able to move on and over look. One can be weighed down when you look at all the negative aspects and not move at all. That is where I once was... I am now choosing to look forward and to that which is good.

Routines must be in place and the right attitudes on board. Also be ready to fall or get behind because that is just going to be, so get ready and get back up. Back to the routines, back to the right attitude and back to those projects.

Learning from my failings of house trying to house keeping and establishing. We are getting back to our routines and back to our project and the days of BIG mess is history. Where I try and try but get know where. Everyday is a new day take comfort in that and join us as we move forward.

Get those routines together, get back to the projects and lets keep on trucking :)
