5mart Martha Monday.

5mart Martha Monday was a name suggested by Shelly for my 5 on Monday

I like the way Shelly put the 5 for the S. Fr. John Speekman has promised a logo for the 5mart Martha Monday.

So my 5 last week were:

1. Drink water instead of soft drink.
2. Clean out Tom and Christopher's room. They have way too much junk and I need to really clean out everything they don't need.
3. Go to weekday Mass each day.
4. clean our bedroom every day.
5. Fold the washing everyday.

I drank water everyday until Friday. Steve and I usually go out for tea on Friday nights but last
Friday we decided to buy some junk from Coles and cook it at home ourselves. I bought some coke to drink with our junk tea and had some more on Saturday and another drink on Sunday.

2:Tom and Christopher's room is probably half done. It was too much for me to finish in a week and I didn't really start cleaning it out until Wednesday.

3: I went every day to weekday mass until Friday which was too hard with all the different after school activities the children had that night. Steve and I did have a short prayer time at the church though before going to coles and Soccer.

4. Our bedroom has been cleaned everyday but Steve did it on Thursday and Friday.

5. I think I did do all the washing every day but I am not certain.

My 5 for this week are:

1. Finish of Tom and Christopher's room.
2. Pray 5 decades of the rosary each day.
3. Go to bed by 10.00pm.
4. Get up at 6.00am
5. Finish reading the book Audrey.

here's a good tip, if your kids have toys they don't use anymore, why not donate them to the poor? to a thrift store?

Go for it!
I'm trying the 5 decades a day with morning and evening Divine Office. ... Yes, well I AM trying!

The kids room is on my to do list-soon, honestly soon!

God bless Therese!

Our sons Tom and Christopher and our daughter Amelia are type one diabetics. We pray everyday for a cure. We do not want one by illicit means though so don't support any organisation that contributes to Embryonic Stem Cell Research.
