<\/a><\/p>\nI feel my energy rev up; it\u2019s go<\/em> time! First up, throw a load of laundry in.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve been focusing on doing 1-2 load of laundry a day. It\u2019s not enough to annoy me and it keeps it from piling out of control.<\/p>\n 12:10 pm- Once that is washing, I head to the kitchen.<\/p>\n I work on a recipe for my next WCCB Charlotte News Rising segment this Thursday and prep dinner at the same time. The kitchen turns into a disaster zone.<\/p>\n Over half of my precious two hours is spent in here, but to have the recipe done, dinner ready to go and the kitchen cleaned is good for my sanity.<\/p>\n 1:15 pm \u2013 To the computer.<\/p>\n Here I have to really control myself. I reply to a few prioritized emails and do a little social media work for the company I work for. It\u2019s tempting to check in with twitter or catch up on blogs, but I have to resist.<\/p>\n 1:35 pm \u2013 All the important computer stuff is taken care of. I know I have a little bit of time left to take care of some little tasks that make a big difference. First up, the living room.<\/p>\n It\u2019s amazing that a 5 minute pick-up can make me feel so much more relaxed in my own home.<\/p>\n On that same note, I head to the car.<\/p>\n We are still in the rental (after the accident<\/a>), so it hasn\u2019t gotten too messy, but there are some random water cups, deflated balloons, receipts and such that need cleaning out. Again, this helps me feel more pulled together.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
