Domestic Diva Wannabe

Before the New Year, I had this plan to read a book per week. It’s a very good plan since it will really force me to allot some time at night to read books. I love to read books but this hasn’t been much of a priority to me after having kids and I guess, the 24/7 internet connection in the house. But for the record, I still read a few books last year.  Anyways, I would love to read more books again.. I will have to make a list first of the books that I will be reading in the next few weeks and I will make sure to post my ‘To- Read List’.

I loved to be organized but then, with kids around it seems that my desire to be organized wears off.  There are times when I’m in the mood to organize books, toys and other stuff complete with color coding and assortment of boxes. So, I spent hours and hours doing just that. And finally, when I’m done with my work I contentedly leave the organized shelf or room and do other chores. But as expected, when my kids enter that area, my hours of hard work is messed up in a matter of seconds. And no matter how much I ask them to arrange back the books or the toys( the legos, Tom Kuhn yoyos, dolls and etc) , it’ll never be the same as how I left it. So, there goes my ‘organized’ space..

It’s already late at night but I’m still awake since I was determined to do my online work. But then, it seems my mind is not working and I just end up surfing the net, looking at my friends’ Facebook status and reading the news. I’ve also skimmed through a few articles on health, diet, cigars and other stuff but I know reading doesn’t seem to help me accomplish my goal for today and that is ‘work’.

So, here I am.. doing a monologue here in my blog. I hope I’ll be inspired and motivated to do work now so, I won’t waste time.
