1. Wake up early: Uhm. Well let's call this the nine things support thread. I'm not getting up early.

2. Go to bed early: Check-ish. I aim to be in bed no later than 11:00, but I was out getting groceries til almost ten, so I neeeeded a little down time.

3. Evening Preparations: My evening prep things are to make sure the dishes & laundry are started and that my meds are set out for the am.

4. Meal planning: I have a super cute meal planning chart, it's pretty so I can leave it out in the open and see it all the time.

5. 1 load of laundry per day~ Start to finish: I actually do this a little differently. I start the laundry before bed (11 ish), DH moves it to the dryer first thing in the am (6 ish), then I put it away during the day. I love doing it this way because the washer is empty to throw dirty clothes straight into.

6. Dishes done each evening: Load & run at night, M empties in the am so I can put dishes in immediately.

7. 5 minute bathroom cleaning: This is my oldest jurisdiction. It's her first morning chore. I step in once a week or so to do mirrors, floors and the shower.

8. Have a place for everything: I'm there, more or less. I'm always tweaking it a bit.

9. Have a bedtime routine of cleaning up: And locking up. We try to do most of it before we sit down for the night. M starts the dishes, I start the laundry. The kitchen is already clean from doing out dinner chores. Lock up, charge phones, shut down computer.

10. Don't say "yes" immediately to new requests: Not so fab at this one. Doing better. Still room to improve.
