Schedule It!

"The key is not to prioritize what's on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities."

                                                                                       ~ Stephen Covey

With so many things to do it can seem impossible trying to figure out how to get all of it done.  Well, if you can schedule everything into a weekly or monthly calender, you will be one step closer to accomplishing the impossible.

Kids have soccer practice next Saturday?  Schedule it!

Big test coming up?  Schedule it!
Tags due on the car?  Schedule it!

Birthday party and gift still to buy?  Schedule it!

Once you make this schedule, stay on track!  If you are taking the time to write everything down then take the time to look at it and follow through with daily deadlines so it will keep the craziness to a minumum.

Helpful hint: Color Code Everything = Sports, School, Bills, Parties

This will make finding the "next" one easier.  Think of it as a modern day Candyland for the real game of Motherhood!

Mother of all trades, master of none...

Hello there!  My name is Ashley Valdivia and this blog will give advice, tips, suggestions and creative ways to be the mother of all trades and master of none. 
It all started as a result of the crazy, hectic thing I like to call life.  When I took a moment to think about what I could really blog about, the only thing that came to mind was how much I know about celebrity gossip.  I thought that was a little pathetic.  So, I really started thinking about what else I spend my time doing.  Well, turns out I do A LOT.  I am a full time wife, mother of two, employee and student.  And while I think I do a pretty good job at keeping my sanity (as well as maintaining others) I do realize and want to make sure other women in my same situation realize, it is impossible to be "perfect" at all these things but it can be a lot of fun to try if you have a go-to for help.

Long ago are the days of June Cleaver. 

Step aside Mrs. Brady. 

You're The 21st Century Mother!
