mommy schedule

so recently i have been around a lot of emotional stress that has skewed my schedule. work has been crazy, with a loss of a co-worker, and home has been crazy, with potty training and eli getting a big boy bed. i have been trying not to focus on the fact that i have a 3 hour commute daily, so i have been striving to get myself on a regular daily schedule. so far, its working! now this may bore you, but its just something i want to define outloud! mornings consist face washing, makeup, hair, teeth :), getting dressed, and making lunches. i try to squeeze in laundry or dishes, depending on time. i also read in a magazine that if you make lunches or breakfast prior to getting dressed, you are less likely to change you clothes multiple times (avg for women is three!). it's working!!! second, i try to relax on the train by catching up on social media and great pandora sessions. when i get to work, i plan the day, execute, then fill in where needed. the greatest thing about my career is that its flexible which i love! (on wednesday morning, i go in like 30 min later so i can see my little man in the morning!)also, breakfast and lunch are usually time to spend with my best friends, whom either go to school or work in the same hospital, different area/shift. every afternoon i have been striving to get a workout prior to boarding the train for relax again. i then cook dinner (which i have laid out the night before), play with eli outside, then shower and relax with the hubs. so far its going well... we will see how long it lasts! (do you see how i focus my day around relaxing? haha it helps with the stress of my career and balance of my family!)

happy scheduling!
