Focus Friday

Ok so here it is another Friday and what a week it has been. Since I wrote my post last Friday we have decided we are selling our house and the plan is to have it on the market by then end of this month. This has been REALLY STRESSFUL for me, in the long run it is a good thing but being pregnant and trying to pack up a house makes for a killer combination. As for my other focuses for last week the recital got rained out so no first recital ( that’s ok she probably would have stood there frozen if she even went on the stage), and sorting for a garage sale is definitely on track as I begin packing. As for prep for birthday month well it took a back seat. So here are my new focuses:
- Pack, Pack, Paint and Pack ( that kind of sums up the rest of the month for me!)
- Celebrate my 27th birthday! On Sunday I turn 27 and my father in-law turns 1 year older (yes we share a birthday) and thanks to Christine at Mommy Story I am going to Yanni Voices with my mom and I can not wait! If you are wondering why I am excited for Yanni read my review of this great cd here.
- Try not to be too stressed ( bad for baby) about all the things I need to do in one month!
So that is my focus for next week, what are you focusing on?
New to Focus Friday here is the scoop: As we enter a new year everyone, myself included, has a list as long as their arm of things they want to accomplish. So I have decided to hold myself accountable by choosing one thing to focus on each week. It can be big or small, it doesn’t matter just as long as I specify what it is and get it done.So each week I will post my focus for the upcoming week as well as give a recap of how my week went with the previous focus. Now here is the fun part, I want you to join me on my little focus challenge. Grab my fancy button from above and post it along with your Focus Friday each week on your own blog. Then come and leave your link here in the Mr.Linky below. I promise if you participate that I will cheer you on and help you to stay focused and please do the same for me and all the participants. If you don’t blog just leave your focus in a comment below.

















Wow that's a lot going on in one month! Moving is a huge undertaking (especially when pregnant) so do the work in little spurts and don't wear yourself totally out!
Happy early birthday!!!
My goodness, I can understand completely why you are fighting off the stress.. I remember 2 years go… trying to pack and fix the house up and I was 6 months pregnant.. UGH.. It was so hard. I had to fly my sister in to help. The good thing is you'll get through this.. and the most important things always get done.
Happy Birthday to you!!!! 27!! Man.. I turned 31 this year.. its going by so quickly!
I hate packing…especially while preggo!! That stinks that you had to put your plans on the back burner–but Happy Birthday anyway!! Thanks for the privilege of being in my first ever Focus Friday!!
Happy early Birthday!
One moment at a time…..that is how everything goes when you are pregnant. Just don't forget to put your feet up!
Good luck with everything.
