A Good Habit

On school days we have it in our schedule to be ready for breakfast at 7:30am.   Being "ready for breakfast" means making your bed, cleaning your room, and being dressed.  For the most part the kids hit it pretty regularly. 

But me?  Well sometimes.  Sometimes not.  And I always have a good excuse of course.  Like I spent too much time on the computer I didn't sleep well the night before, I'm not finished with my Bible time, I don't feel well.  In any case, I'm being a bad example to my kids.  I should be the one that is ready first. 

I read somewhere that it takes about 30 days to establish a habit.  So for the month of September I've decided to make it my goal to be out of my room (roomed and groomed) on time.  Or earlier than on time.  With my room clean.  And bed made.  Bible time finished.  And dressed for the day. 

I was hoping that there would be some others that might want to join me and start a new habit or goal for September.  It can be anything...big or small.  Like finish the book you started, take your vitamins, don't yell at anybody, exercise, whatever.  What do you think?  You have 2 more days to pray about some area that needs improvement.   And if you're in, just leave a comment and tell me about it and we can help keep each other accountable.

Any takers? 

PS.  If your last name is the same as mine, I expect you to participate!
