Has Anyone Seen My Motivation?

This week I implemented a chore chart of sorts in my house... You are correct, I do not have children. The chart is for me. Just like when you memorized your Bible verse or came to class every week and got a sticker on the class role, I get a sticker for doing the most basic things.

1. Get out of bed ON TIME 6:30
2. Bible study and quiet time
3. Make Bed
4. Work out at YMCA
5. Pick up living area. No dishes in sink at bedtime.

Don't judge me! I'm a super overachiever in some areas. Household chores and self-motivation are NOT those areas. Just ask my mother. Would you believe there is 1 thing I have done consistantly EVERYDAY this week? I have made my bed every single day this week, granted Wednesday it was 30 mins before we went back to bed.

On the flip side not once this week have I gotten out of bed on time. I swear I absolutely hate waking up in the mornings. Once Kyle gets up around 5 I start dreaming and sometimes the dreams are so strange I just don't want to leave them. I will go in and out of sleep hitting the snooze button for over an hour! RIDICULOUS I KNOW!!

I am trying so hard to form better habits. My reward is a manicure when I have accumulated 66 stamps. I have a possible 33 each week because I don't have to get out of bed at 6:30 on weekends :) In exchange for 2 weeks worth of good behavior I will treat myself to a manicure. It may take a while because of a possible 25 this week, I have 10 so far...
