What is your bedtime routine?
I remember when my kids were little my nightly routine consisted of picking up the house after I got them to sleep, then watching a movie and falling asleep before prior to the end. Once I woke up after the movie I would head to bed and on my way there I would see something that I should do before I get to bed, like maybe get something ready for the next day, putting away the dishes that I washed after supper, folding the load of laundry I had just put int eh dryer, and so on. I would then get my teeth brushed and hop into bed.
Being older now and not having the old routine of having little kids to be responsible for I now can decide to head to bed and only make one trip to the bathroom, brush my teeth and go to bed. I find myself not worrying about the few dishes in the sink over night or the load of laundry sitting in the basket waiting to get folded now. It can wait until tomorrow. I try not to worry about the little things in life anymore. Life is to short and realistically, does it really matter that things wait until the next day? I didn't think so.
