My wonderful idea for a test schedule turned out to be for not the first week. I hadn’t realized before however, just how off my sleeping habits had become. When attempted, I would toss & turn after midnight and finally sleep well by 5am, which of course led to sleeping past the targeted wake time.
Last night was much of the same only I stuck it out, and managed not to sleep in. Today my schedule is different than normal but I’m going to give this routine one more shot before changing it up.

And I’ve tried several before but now what makes this doable is a set-time frame to try the schedule, a single goal to condition myself to and a way to keep track of what I’m doing. Tomorrow is the first day and I’m going to start by honoring the bedtime tonight. Best of luck! 9 months ago
scheduling myself has got to be one of the hardest things for me to do ive always just done things as i needed and felt like doing them and at the spur of the moment i also try and not to completely commit to any event just in case something pops up and im unable to make it because i dont want to bail on anyone so again that gives me all in all a very now type of to do’s and not really a schedule of any sort the only thing i can think of that is remotely scheduled right now is that ive been sort of walking a few times a week with friends so i guess thats a start right lol im also trying to work on getting up and going to bed at certain times and hopefully timing meals but of course in the very versatile way i normally do to a point cause i dont usually eat till im actually hungry so that varies right now … habits looots and looots of habits to change ><
lets see ok soo…
i need to work on the sleep routine
i need to work on scheduling fitness better
eating regularly
adequate time for homework
cleaning my apartment
and one of the most important is to make sure i have plenty of time with my son and lots of fun things for us to do together and experience
... yea my brain just isnt working on setting times for everything never seems to get as much done as i need or want to do during the day :/ 18 months ago
seems like since the heat hit my schedule went to shit lol been sleeping in late and staying up late trying to avoid some of the heat and my son’s sleeping schedule is off because of mine too of course so we woke up late again today and i was laying there in bed just thinking of all the things i need to get done and how i used to have the majority of things done before noon so ive decided that ill put my son down for a nap at our normal time instead of just letting him sleep when he needs to im hoping that this will help being able to go to bed easier tonight on at a normal time cause i really cant do this night owl thing anymore… poor little guy hes still in the room screaming and crying at me but he is tired so he should give up soon and tonight ill take a half sleeping pill so i can get myself to sleep hopefully i can change this around quickly 21 months ago
right now its mainly to do with health related things but its a start

SOOOOOO I’ve got a basic schedule of things I have to do and have been sticking to it. I’m considering this as a start. I’ve been going to bed and waking up around the same time but with some variations. I of course go to work, have a toddler, house work, and school to juggle. My goal is to have a basic but more detailed list of my normal to do’s that I just DO… almost there :) 23 months ago
