Project Update #2

It is amazing how quickly Satan will attach your resolve to do things better! Yesterday I set my television goal and first thing this morning it was completely threatened! Bean woke up at 6:50AM! Ugh. Last week I would have bundled her in bed with me and set up the laptop to play Dora the Explorer. I am happy to say this morning I did not do that! It helped a bit that Bear (my younger daughter) woke up 15 minutes later so I had to get up and fix her breakfast because that is absolutely the FIRST thing she has to have. But still... Bear went back down for a nap not long after breakfast and I still only let Bean watch one show while she ate her breakfast. She was then allowed a show while I fixed lunch and we did not watch any more TV until this evening, despite the visit from the Pregnant Hormonal Fairy that visited this afternoon and put me completely on edge so that every little thing drove me completely nutso! We even worked on a project that I would normally have tried to do during nap time so that I wouldn't have "help".

I know that it is only one battle one, but it feels like a very good victory! I am sure there will be days that I don't meet my goal because I am still human, but at least I didn't fall down right out of the gate. Yea!
