5mart Martha Monday.

My five from Last week were:

1 Sewing: I will sew a shirt for Christopher for Kindy.

I have cut the shirt out but not sewn it.

2. Housework and home school: Finish of the two kitchen cupboards and cook meals for the next month.

I cleaned out the cupboard above the stove but didn't do the plastics cupboard. It is so overwhelming to look in that I just cannot get the energy to do it. I also have cooked most of our meals. I still need to do the Tuna mornay and pasties.


3. Health: drink 8 cups of water at least each day.

I did drink a lot of water but probably not 8 cups. I am going to keep on drinking more though.

4. Family: We will continue taking our children in pairs to pray before the Blessed Sacrament. Also Steve and I are making more of an effort to get out for dates more often.

Today Steve and I went out for coffee and we have taken Madeline, Christopher, Brigette and Amelia to pray in the church over the last week.

5. Spiritual. Steve and I are going to pray the rosary each morning together.


I did this for 3 out of the 5 mornings before work. On Wednesday and Thursday night I had interrupted sleep and just couldn't get out of bed.

So this week my five are:

Sewing: Finish Christopher's shirt.

Housework and Home school: We are going to read the way of the cross this week. I will read a little bit each day and they will do some posters for us to put up around the home school room. I will also clean out one other kitchen cupboard besides the plastics one. Maybe I will leave the plastics until I have done the rest of the kitchen.

Health: Continue watching our diet and eating more whole grains. Continue drinking more water.

Family: Sunday we have planned a family day. I think we will go to Quorn first thing in the morning for mass then we are going to the Quorn Native Flora Reserve for a picnic.

Spiritual: Continue getting up early to pray with Steve and spend more time on my Bible study.
