Now I don't have all the answers but in the last year I have learned:
2. PLAN meals ahead.... when you CAN! I try to keep our meals VERY organized and planned. Because I know if I don't have a plan we will resort to take out food and you know that's NOt healthy!!!
*Start with this awesome list.... (bought@ Pier1 Imports, my store haha)Its all sep by dept and attaches to your frig for easy daily check off...

3. Surround yourself with the BEST, friends & family: My family is most important to me when I am not working. I spend as much time as I can with them when Im not, but also understand because I do work I might and will miss out on some outings with them.


*Oh you dont think I forgot about The Hubby.... I have the best! I could not be the mom I am without the help from him!
5. Take time for yourself: I have found that getting my nails done once a month is easy on my brain & our wallet! It just makes me happy! :)
6. Finally.... HAVE FUN: with the time you DO have! I sometimes get down thinking about the time I DONT have with my family. But them its the off schedule times I DO get that make me the happiest! These 2 posts in the last 2 weeks say it all: Snow & Mornings
