Menu for week of March 21

I completely missed the boat last week, as I was trying to get my house in order, baby clothes washed and preparing for my mom to visit. I'm just down to a waiting game for new baby to arrive, so please forgive me for lack of posts.  I also haven't been as busy in the kitchen lately because the weather is nicer and I want to be outside more.  Plus, I don't like being on my feet so much these days.

I invested in a new iPad, which I thought would help my blogging, but come to find out that it doesn't like the features that help you compose posts, and so everything has to be done in HTML. I do know HTML, but I'm trying to keep it simple...trying to find alternatives.

Help, Help! I'm drowning from non-existent time management

Ok, so I'm a little disorganized this week.  Baby coming soon, house is crazy, job is busy, and life has just gotten in the way. More posted on Tuesday...I promise.

Menu for the week of March 7

Busy, busy, busy.  My husband started trial this week...err...let me say that different - My husband, an attorney, is on the defendant's side for his first trial this week.  Very nervewracking!  He's been able to settle or win on Motion to Dismiss on every other lawsuit for the past 5 years.  We were in bed last night by 10pm; whoa, does that feel strange. Our normal bedtime is usually 12/12:30AM

So many things on my to do list this week. I've been reading a lot about bloggers that have 15 minutes scheduled within their day to "plan" or "write down their to dos"  This seems impossible for me. I get writer's block - can't think of anything...yet I know I have things to do. I think of things on the fly and when I'm laying down in bed at night decompressing (that's when they come to me), but I fall asleep writing them down. Then I spend all night with ink on my sheets - or sleeping on a pencil...which is most uncomfortable. Will need to research more work-arounds on how to accomplish this task, because my life needs more planning and organizing.

Thoughts? Tips & tricks?  Please do share!
