DONNA--finding herself #16

You sound better, that's good. Some sleep and getting your meds back on track will help, too. Was it antidepressants that you missed the dosing on? If so just be warned it can take longer than you'd think to get back on track... I missed a day and I was "off" for about a week. Not to discourage you, just be prepared in case it doesn't kick back in right away.

As for the time-managemet - have you ever looked at Flylady.net? It really helped me get organized. It's a little overwhelming when you first look at the site (funny for a site about organizing eh?), but I like it a lot. Some of it's clearly geared for stay at home moms - if you sign up for the email reminders: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FlyLadyMentors/ I'd choose the digest or you'll get bombarded with all these reminders to get dressed, exercise, make the bed, etc. But the other principles I really like. Here's the beginner section:

I called it "Operation Shiny Sink" when I started - you'll see why if you look at the site. I was shocked that it really DID make a difference to have all the sinks in the house shining.

Here's one geared specifically for single parents, might be useful:

Hope the bellydancing is up and running so you can go! I plan to do my DVD again tonight.
