Here are some ideas you could try for the next 10 days see if they make your life a bit easier.
1. Lay out your clothes (as well as the kids) the night before ~ Even Us stay home moms. We can avoid running around in PJ’s all day and then at the end of the day wonder “Man why do I feel so bad for not getting anything done, LOOK I am still in my PJ’s from last night!”
2. Each morning make you a list of things you would like to accomplish that day. (ex: Calls to make/errands to run/emails that need to be answered list 3-5 items per section)
MEALS:
3. Plan 1 night a week for a family night dinner every week. For each of us this day will be different. I have a friend, Shannon & Mac who have family Nights on Mondays. They order PaPa Johns Pizza and have a ball. Have a simple pizza from Wal-mart or hotdog’s or Loaded Nachos ,like my pal Monica makes for her family.
4. Plan 1 night a week for left-over’s. For us this is Wednesday night bcs we have church. I make plenty of food anyway throughout the week that this is an easy fall back plan.
5. Plan 1 night a week for a Crockpot meal. Throw all (most) ingredients in the AM and your are done. You could do this the day before a left-over’s night!
6. Plan 1 night a week for a casserole meal.
That right there is 4 nights taken care of.
If you are interested in the meals you can e-mail me Crockpot recipes or casserole recipes at.... melissa@theorganizertexas.com
If enough of ya wanna try this I can post each Sunday 1 crock pot recipe & casserole recipe for us all to try. This will give you plenty of time to go shopping for the items.
