Sunday

I synced with MIL on when I needed babysitting help
I was still very tired from DD sleep so decided to nap for the afternoon and not do much work beyond setting up Five Weeks to Abundance private community
I wrote a shopping list and prep cooked a chicken dish to try a new technique. It didn’t work out great. I ended up eating most of it
Hubby picked up some grocery items. I chopped up chicken breast and froze some for the week
We ordered dinner for the family for family night.
Figured out the pilot light went off on our water heater

Monday
Service for water heater scheduled for Thursday. Cold water and no showers until then. Thankfully I am not meeting people in person
Chopped garlic and froze it
Make a pasta dinner with beef, frozen spinach, Italian herb pasta sauce which was great
Hubby bought more groceries, mostly frozen. So I think we might be about 3-5 days ahead on food now. $150 which is about double our grocery spend in a week so that tracks
I set up the early access sale for Save My Retirement Masterclass (use saveme25 to save on the class through may 14)
Did a super quick core workout, cut short as I came back to get DD
Frustrated, I went out with him for a walk
One coaching call
DD took pacifier and slowly and begrudgingly drank a little from the bottle

Tuesday
Wrecked by an overnight where I didn’t sleep
Had a networking call
A coaching call
Caught up on open coaching inquiries as I’m now starting anyone interested in working with me May – June
Decided to relax and watch a movie during the day. Enola Holmes 2. Liked it more than original
Canceled a subscription (thanks to my scheduled email reminders)
Texted a mommy friend
Began sleep training because I’d had enough and immediately moved DD to bassinet

Wednesday
Happy with first night of sleep training. I got caught up on cooking and rushed through a workout at home. Caught up with a friend
Had a health checkup
Then continued to work on coaching and class teaching.
Got hungry and hubby and I decided to go for dessert date and a Costco run

Thursday
A flurry of a morning. Waited forever for gas service. Turns out the water heater is broken. Sent text of the issue to the landlord, and he says help will come quite shortly
Coached some clients for rest of the day and continued to review sleep logs for DD
Dinner was a collection of leftovers

Friday
Sleep training seems to work, I feel less like a zombie
Had 3 back to back meetings in morning AND a plumber came over and got us a new water heater. Yes for more hot showers!
Lunch date with hubby while MIL was over
Quiet dinner night and played with BB who got a busy bag from library

Saturday
Day off. Saw a friend
Played with kids at home
