{ back in the swing of things }

Today, is the day to get back in the swing of things...after 2 weeks of nothing but play & eating, I'm ready to catch up on some work, have a good sweaty workout and plan some healthy meals for the week. Take a look at your resolutions and see what you can do to start making them happen...slowly. eg. Want to lose 20 lbs? Schedule in 3 trips to the gym this week.

One of the other things I like to do in order to get organized is make a master to do list of things I'd like to get done - sometimes I break it down by month or season... these are more task oriented so different from my resolutions. But then I pull off of this list each week to add tasks to my momME weekly planner. You can view my master to do list here.

So one of the items on my 2008 To DO List has been to create a will & guardianship documents. Just in case. Well this required choosing software, making an appointment for an attorney perhaps, etc. and half-way through 2008 it still hasn't happened. But, then I came across this free offer for Suze Orman's Will & Trust forms. So I am putting this on my To DO list and will have it done by August 1st. I'm going to fill out these forms and have an attorney review them, get the witnessed & notarized and filed safely away.

Here's how to get it:

• Go to SuzeOrman.com.
• Click on Will & Trust Kit link on upper left menu.
• Click the orange Gift Code button.
• Type in the code “people first”.

Oh, and these better not be sold out by the time my No Spend Month is over. :-)
