Dear FlyLady,
I have 3 kids under 10 and just finished my master’s degree. To say the least the house could have been declared a disaster area. I have started to declutter and organize the house. I have been working really hard on getting into the routines, but always put everyone else before me. I would still be in my pajamas by the time my husband got home from work. I was excited to see that this month is getting in the habit of pampering myself. I always have felt guilty about spending money on myself. Well I bought some pretty earrings and put on a pair every morning as part of my routine. They are a small thing which makes me feel pretty and loving myself. I also arrange a date night for my DH and I. It had been over 6 months since our last one. Well this morning my oldest daughter looked at me and told me I looked happy and pretty!!!!! I will keep pampering myself now. It is not being selfish just making myself happy so I am a better wife and mother. Thank you for bring chaos under control and putting a smile on my family’s face.
