I am sitting here watching the clock grow ever closer to midnight, waiting for DH to get to sleep, thinking about all the things I have to accomplish tomorrow, balancing the checkbook, looking at facebook for the 4th or 5th time today.  As I was looking I saw a link entitled: When Satan steals your motherhood

So many moms need to read this article, including myself.  I let so many worries, old fashioned laziness and very unimportant time wasting things (like facebook and pinterest) get in the way of being the kind of mother that I know I can be.  The kind of the mother my kids deserve and the kind of mother the Lord can help me become.  Why?  Why do I let these things get in the way?  I'm not sure yet, I'm still thinking about that.  It's not a new thing, I've been doing it for years.  I want to stop.  I just get sucked back into my old habits so easily, before I can even blink.  The only way to get past this is through our Savior, Jesus Christ.  I've prayed for help before, but only half heartedly.

Here's a thought that I just had:  maybe I need to put my laptop out of sight.  Out of sight, out of mind.  Isn't that how the old saying goes?  I could do that.  That would make it more difficult to just sit down and turn it on.  Currently my laptop sits at the end of the chase on our sectional couch.  (Yes, I am very lazy.)  I like this idea.  I'll let you know how it goes.
