I've had a lot of time to think this weekend while we have all been sick. And I decided to make a few changes. I've been feeling overwhelmed lately. Between being me, a wife, a mother, a writer, an editor, and an office manager. There never seems enough time in the day to get everything done.
So I have decided to make a few changes to make my life a little less overwhelmed.
My first goal... start taking Keith's dress shirts to a local drycleaner to launder and iron.
I know, ironing may sound like a simple thing. But for me it isn't. I hate to iron. I had a college friend who would always iron her jeans, and I just couldn't understand why.
If I leave my ironing board up, it just becomes a flat service to fill with other stuff.... like clothes that should be put away. Or the pile of clothes that should be ironed but never get ironed.
I figure if I take the shirts to get laundered and ironed, it will save me the frustration and time of ironing and it will make Keith much happier to open the closet door each morning and have all his shirts to choose from as he gets ready for work.
So that is goal number 1. I'll keep you posted on how it makes my life easier and how much it ends up costing me :)
