Daily Plan-It


"Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God,
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand."
(Isaiah 41:10)


After a few days of being off schedule, I'm hoping to recover some time - and my home - today. It's another mixed-up day around here, but I'll do the best I can. At least if I have a plan, I can make an effort to stay on track and get this place whipped back into shape.

Here's what I have planned for the day in this edition of The Daily Plan-It:

My Morning To Do List-if all else fails, I at least need to get this done.
--Quiet Time
--Drink Water
--Dressed, Make-Up, Hair
--Make Bed
--Kitchen and Dishes
--Wipe Up Bathrooms
--Start Laundry
--Water Plants
--Early Meal Prep

My Daily To Do List-this will help my day go a whole lot smoother.
--Drink water
--Fast fifteen
--Weekly tasks
--Monthly tasks
--Finish laundry
--Quick clean-up
--Fix dinner
--Kitchen and dishes
--Prep for tomorrow

My Weekly To Do List
--I usually try to spread these tasks out over the course of the week, but last week I was able to get most of the cleaning tasks done in one day. It felt great! I'm going to try the same thing today, so I won't worry about doing any Monthly To Do tasks.
--Today I want to empty the trash and recycling, vacuum, dust, clean the bathrooms, wipe down the mirrors, and maybe even mop the floors.

My Monthly To Do List
--I'm not going to do anything extra today. Just doing some basic cleaning and straightening will be more than enough.

It's cloudy, rainy, and a little cold outside today. It's going to take lots of prayer and grace to keep it sunny inside my home and heart. I'm ready to get going on a busy day!

My Weekly To Do List

Are you ready? I know I am. Let's get to it!


"But the angel said to the women, 'Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.' "

My Weekly To Do List
--I usually try to spread these tasks out over the course of the week. Unfortunately, as the week goes on, I seem to get less and less accomplished. This week, I'm going to try to get most of my weekly cleaning tasks done today, but I won't worry about doing any Monthly To Do tasks.
--Today I want to empty the trash and recycling, vacuum, dust, clean the bathrooms, wipe down the mirrors, and maybe even mop the floors.

My Monthly To Do List
--I'm doing a big nothing for this category today. I haven't even updated my list for this week yet. I'll work on making my list today.

I'm anxious to see what I can get accomplished today! So much to do....I'd better get started. What do you have planned for today?


"He gives power to the faint,
and to him who has no might he increases strength."
(Isaiah 40:29)


This has been a challenging week. Again. Of course, aren't they all? I've had to evaluate my priorities countless times over the past few days. And again and again, my best laid plans have been laid aside. There have been children to teach and discipline and comfort. There have been people, both big and little, to listen to and to love. There have been many important things demanding my time and attention.

So, my house isn't what I wish it was, but I think my family is better for it. Today I'll try to get a little more done, but I don't know what the day will hold. I hope that regardless of my feeble accomplishments, I will glorify God through my heart attitude and my hard work. Now that is sure to be a challenge!

My Daily To Do List-this will help my day go a whole lot smoother.

My Weekly To Do List
--There's a lot that I've gotten done this week....and a lot that I haven't. I'll continue work on catching up on what I've missed. I still need to clip my coupons, file my coupons, clean out my purse, and make a grocery list.

My Monthly To Do List
--This week I'm focusing on the Kitchen. I'm still working on clearing out clutter in the cabinets and cleaning up the cabinet under the sink.

By the grace of God, I hope to get a few more things marked off my lists. And, also by God's grace, I hope to to have a joyful day! What do you have planned for the day?


"Have you not known? Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;
his understanding is unsearchable.
(Isaiah 40:28)

My Weekly To Do List
--I'm going to wash sheets, clean out my purse, and catch-up on any tasks I haven't been able to complete so far this week. I've got a lot of catching up to do!

My Monthly To Do List
--This week I'm focusing on the Kitchen. Today I want to attack the cabinet under the sink. I'm sure I'll find bunches of plastic bags, empty soap bottles, and used sponges. This is one of those cabinets that makes me cringe when I open it every day. No more!

I have a lot of things to get done today. I haven't followed my own plan as well as I should have this week, so I'm hoping to make up for lost time. I'll just do one thing at a time and see how far I can get!


"But the Lord answered her, 'Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necesary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.' "
