Accountability or Accomplishments?

On another blog I've been reading lately, the owner has an accountability list for the things she wants to get done everyday. I'm thinking I should probably put something like this together for myself, but I'm not so sure I'd actually *do* the things on it. Wouldn't it be more depressing if I was flunking my own accountability test?

I think an alternative might be listing the things I actually accomplish during the day. Maybe if I recognize that I'm actually getting some stuff done, I wouldn't feel so overwhelmed by the stuff I didn't get to do. I know that I'm probably putting some unrealistic expectations on myself, but there's certainly a lot of stuff that I most definitely should be doing - and I'm not. My boys are spending waaaaay too much time flying solo - and that's just unacceptable. I really need to get working on that daily routine and stick to it. Where the heck is that SuperNanny? My boys aren't the ones who need the behavior adjustment. I wonder if she can teach them how to get me to do the right thing.

Ok - so goal for tomorrow? Get my ever-growing rear end out of bed and actually make breakfast for the boys. Telling them to just grab a banana is no longer working and I may need to diffuse a mutiny. Can't say that I blame them.
