At home mom routines.. What do you do?

I am a work at home mom. I do have alot of free time during the day. It can be lonesome sometimes. I just need to figure out better routines. What routines do you have?

Upon research of at home mom routines, I have come up with a great list of different things to do.

1. Clean... Well Duh!
I mean obviously if you are a stay at home mom, you will eventually clean something. I clean things all day long, I still do have my boogie home. He is 4 and likes to make a mess. I take time during the day to do laundry, clean the dishes, clean the counters, clean the bathrooms, and keep the living room tidy. It is hard when you work in the living room and just do not want to clean too much in there!

2. Cook something?
I love to bake bread for my family. There is just something special about having home baked bread when you want to eat! I love it! I also love to bake homemade brownies, cakes, special sauces, etc.

3. School... Learn something?
I am a full time online student. I am finishing up my degree online for a business degree. I am excited and can not wait finish this! I am looking to also start nursing school in the fall. This will be a new adventure for our family!

4.Organize something...
I am learning how to organize things in my home. I am starting to get the hang of getting rid of things that I no longer want or need. It is a hard process for me to let go of things. I am considered a pack rat but living in a military life, you can not afford to just bring your junk with you from house to house. I am learning if it doesnt have a place, it goes out the door.

5. Have more time with God....
I am loving this one new discovery! I am loving that I am able to spend my time in the morning before I start work, workouts or playing. I can read what I am led to and work on my relationship with my God. I love it!!

6. Workout!
I love to work out! I am going to start my P90X again. This workout is simply amazing and you seriously loose alot of weight with commitment. You have to commit to yourself to workout. It is easy to say.. " I will work out tomorrow" or to say " I am not feeling well, I will promise to work out later"... When is later? For me I was sick and needed to rest.. a few years later I am thinking of doing it again!

I hope that you can give me a few new tips for what you do when you are a stay at home mom. I would love to have these great ideas and try new things!


Until later.....
