I have several packs of chicken breasts, two turkeys, one ham, and a lot of venison. My proteins are well covered for this week and next week for sure. I might even make it into the last week of the month without having to buy a lot of proteins.

One key to my ability to do my Weekly Home Blessings quickly is that my house is picked up when I start. Picking up begins with you. You need to model picking up behind yourself. Then you need to ask your children to pick behind themselves. Add it to your routines.
Some of the emails I have received over the past few weeks ask about dealing with previous years’ school materials and cleaning out big areas in your home.
If you need to set a price for caring for other people’s children, make it worth your while. Check costs for sending children to summer camp during the day. Set your price and stick to it. Make sure you include money for snacks/meals or ask them to provide food.
My children are more important than me caring for someone else’s child. I won’t allow them to disrupt our home and cause strife.
My son turned 18 just four days before his accident. He was able to consent for most of his care, but there were papers that I was asked to sign as well. You do not know when you will need important paperwork signed and at hand.
If you do not have a will and guardianship established for your children, that is your priority this month. Call a lawyer and make an appointment. This is crucial if you have children under age 18 in your home.
Sometimes people procrastinate doing this, so your assignment is to do it now. Talk to your spouse today, if you do not have this in place.
Have a great day!
The FlyLady is started a new habit of the month on June 1. The new habit is to drink water daily. Many years ago, I stopped drinking soft drinks. It was not easy, but it was for my health.
Is something you wanted to do but did not get to it? Do one thing toward completing that goal.
