Week 4 - 3 in 30 Update
Just as a reminder for us of what my goals were this month:
1. Read up to Week 4 of Made to Crave and read the Lean.
2. Organize my Pantry, Office, Laundry Room and Master Bedroom
3. No Yelling
I've given up on the first one. I may roll this over into December. This could be a blessing or a curse as December is Christmas cooking and food month. I will be praying that I can make it through. I've felt very heavy and burdensome this last week. I am tired of feeling defeated when it comes to food and tired of hating my body. I did see the doctor this last week for my yearly physical. It surprisingly was a light spot on my week. He told me it appeared that I was pretty healthy. When I said I was overweight, he looked at my chart and said "I've seen worse." There is hope.
I am almost finished my laundry room. This week we will be decorating so I can pull out the Xmas bins and sweep and organize that area. I am very happy with the way it is looking. I moved some bins and the workbench we have in it. I labeled all the bins with what was in them. Even Tman was happy. He could read what was in each bin. I was happy because I didn't have to pull off lids of each and every bin to find something.

No yelling....what was I thinking. I lost it few times this week. I am tired. Period. When I am tired, I get cranky. When I am cranky.....well you know. I have done pretty well, but not as well as I want to. I finally pulled out a jar tonight. I will be informing the kids that when I yell, I will put in a $1. If they yell, they will owe me 30 minutes of electronics time. I think that's fair. the money at the end of the week will be for a treat for them. Let's see who wins.
Can't wait to see how everyone else is doing. Come join us at the 3 in 30 challenge at Welcome to Our Good Life.

Labels are the way to go with boxes you cannot see through. Love the $1/30 minute idea for yelling. I've put myself in time out a couple times getting ready for this move :)
I was just telling my hubby we need to label our boxes so we don't have to look into them each and every time.
I should try that no yelling rule. Although I must admit I am getting better, or else my daughter is getting better. LOL
