I can feel it. I started in my kitchen. With meal planning, using up leftovers and other food before it goes bad, and cooking every night. It is encouraging to make steps in the right direction.<BR/><BR/>I love to decorate, and I'm pretty good at it too, but what is the point, when there is too much junk sitting around to notice the decor. <BR/><BR/>I've been reading your blog for a while and look forward to picking up a copy of the book you recommended. I feel like I need a homemaking 'coach'. I wish it came naturally to everyone, but I know it doesn't. I am committed to changing my ways. Thanks for the encouragement.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09990018398935394320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8007858033104457650.post-74563343331332391142009-01-30T19:32:00.000-08:002009-01-30T19:32:00.000-08:00You are an inspiration!

I have learned that they don't all come at the same time so adjustments are made along the way in expectations & workload & it just works out.
