Reorganization Memo

Last week I had more ideas than I had time to post on. Luckily I wrote them down or they would be long gone, but I just haven't had the motivation to write. I started one post but got tired halfway through and abandoned it for now.

I'm in the process of getting my life in order. Well, I'm really in just the planning stages but one of these days I'll finally pull the trigger. The problem is that I'm a procrastinator, something that was easy to get away with when it was just me and even me and my huband. Not so easy once you have kids. They say the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem...

Part of my reorganization is deciding where I want to take this blog. My "theme" seems to be whatever pops into my head on a given day and I feel like it is adding to my disorder. I enjoy writing but I feel like I need to have more direction and more personality with this blog. I'm still trying to find my niche. Anyone happen to see it go by?

My top priority in my life right now is finding more time with God. I've had such a yearning the last few months to learn more about the Lord and draw closer to Him. Establishing some order in my life will hopefully help me find that time I need. I also feel the need to simplify my life.

So that is my focus right now. Making God my top priority. Sounds so simple but seems so hard. I hate to admit that, but it's true.

that second paragraph was unintentionally hilarious! You use the phrases 'pull the trigger,' 'get away with it' and 'the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.' WHoah, girl!! Somewhere in that scary paragraph might be a niche, or a confession! :D

And just what is wrong with blogging about whatever comes to mind at that particular moment, I'd like to know? That's kind of what it's about in a way - like journaling that everybody's reading.

I've sort of established a loose structure at She Lives. Thurs. is the 13 thing, Monday is my post for the Carnival, Sunday is either nothing or something godly, Friday's are for silliness, and so forth. That's my order in no particular order.

There's a method do your madness too, Carrie. I can feel it.
