Saving Time

Between being a wife and mom, serving in the Relief Society Presidency, serving as the Board of Directors at our Apartment Complex, being an assistant camp director for Girl's Camp, being Director of Marketing for our business and everything else life throws at you I am pretty busy.

I decided to implement a new strategy to streamline certain activities to save time and be more productive. I already plan my menu one month out. After getting my necessary groceries for the week I decided to take 1 hour and prep for the week.

I chopped all my fruits and vegetables for snacks so they would be readily available. I also prepped all the veggies I need for my recipes for the entire week so all I have to do is cook. I got the asparagus, corn on cob, broccoli, cauliflower, green peppers, onions, green beans and cabbage ready. The peppers, onions, and chicken are all ready for Cinco de Mayo fajitas, the grapes, watermelon, and strawberries are all ready too. So far I have only done two days worth but it has saved tons of time already. I will try this out and see if it continues to be helpful.

All in a Name

There is a reason why Always maxi pads are called Always. It is becuase you should ALWAYS use them. There is no cutting corners to save a few bucks. That is all I am going to say on the matter. Remember ladies Always....

Naked Baby Fixes

Upon sharing my naked baby story I have learned some creative ways of dealing with this in case the situation arises again. 1). Put a safety pin at the top of the zipper. 2) Put the jammies on backwards and zip them up the back. 3). Put jammies on and duct tape around the waist. The zipper can only go half way down and can't get past the tape barrier. (I think that is my personal favorite). Any other suggestions?
