Lol! I agree. My son has had some that seemed afflicted themselves. The layout of details here is so helpful without being overwhelming. I created a schedule recently and posted it on the kitchen wall. Some days I follow it.

My husband and I own a business, so it is critical that I hold things down at home, but often the things hold me down. Prayer is really helpful. I also found some great Christian rap music, which is nice because the music is so energizing.

Ha – we’re birds of a feather, we are!!

I love coming up with systems and lists as well!!

I also try to break down my cleaning into little bits over the week so I don’t have to do it all in one shot.

WOW! you are my hero! I am a list person to but never applied the idea to my daily life. I considered this before happening across your blog and planned out a monthly menu for my family but I did not think out everything like I usually do. Trust me you are a life saver with 4 little ones I did not think I had the time (unless I stayed up until early mourning hours, between feedings and slept through schooling the others.) I have been doing one step at a time and the older girls will have their own book pretty soon, they are looking forward to it! You are truly GOD sent for a mom of 4 + 4 thanks!!!

I’m seriously copying/tweaking your list right now! I seriously need to do this. I can’t even find the crib at this point!

May I say..HOLY COW with the lists!
They are so complete and clear and organized and diligent . I am amazed. And wowed. I could never be such a list maker or follower but, I can use a few of your ideas and start making my days a little more organized from your posts.
You would be a good teacher to adults as well as your kids.
Maybe you could post a few scanned pictures of your lists as examples or something.
Good Job Angela!

You should teach special ed teachers how to teach. You cover every contingency–with clear, reasonable directives. The visualization of your days must help so much.
