Daily Did It's

I enjoyed sharing my sleep training adventures with Landon all over the online world. It made it easier to know that I could report back on how my night went. Pretending that my struggles mattered to everyone I know helped me continue to take each step forward.

It was like my mother was there each morning holding my hand as I complained about just how hard the night before was.

To prove my point even more, a woman from church came up to me on Sunday just to congratulate Landon on the big progress we made this week.

I don't know if I have ever said it to you, dear blog reader.... but I am a slob. I struggle with doing the daily chores that a house survives on. The thought of doing big sorting projects gives me the sweats. And worst of all the thought of actually de-cluttering something. What is the point? It is just going to fall apart in a few weeks.

I can't help but wonder if sharing the chores that I have finished each day would hold me accountable. Like knowing that you will be there holding my hand when it has all fallen apart. Laughing at the strange messes I find. And yelling at me when I still haven't done what I needed to.

So here it is, today I....

Unloaded the dishwasher,
Ran 5 loads of laundry (but I didn't fold any of them),
Made Landon's bed,
Made our bed,
Started the dishwasher after dinner,
Had the kids pick up their toys before bed (everywhere).

I know it is not nearly enough when the house is as bad as it is... but that is honestly what is finished right now.
