A Sunday Well Spent Brings a Week of Content

Everyone views Monday as the start of their week. Why? Their 9-5 is Monday through Friday? School is held (at least when I went) Monday – Friday. Sunday seems to be considered the last day of the week. Game changer, I consider it the first day of the week.
On Sundays, I find, that if I spend it getting chores done, to-do list items accomplished, and in general preparing for the week ahead the week goes by so much smoother.
A Sunday well spent for me includes:
·         Waking up before 9
·         Reading/Watching a show in the DVR
·         Getting the kids up, fed and dressed for the day
·         Running small errands or just going out to walk around for some fresh air
o   2017 we hope to have a backyard installed instead of just a dirt lot, that will help Sundays be spent at home and not in a shopping mall! I don’t need any more excuses to spend money :)
·         Home again for kids naptime, reading, household chores taking a nap
·         Dinner with the kids and then playtime for a little bit and a bath before they are off to bed for the night
Sundays tend to be unscheduled, when I get to it I get to it mentality. With the New Year though I want to make my Sundays better well spent. Actually start knocking items off the to do list (like that latch hook rug that I started in middle school, should I really keep it to try to get it done or is it time to throw that bad boy away?!).
