In order for my life to be in perfect balance, I would need to be more organized, have a lot less bills or more income, and a lot less stress directed towards me.

Man, I don't know if my life could ever be in perfect balance. I'm not sure if I want it to be either.

But currently, I would like things to be a little more settled in my life and in order to do that, I would like DH's job situation to be finished (still waiting on the background check). Once we get his job taken care of, I would then need to get my job situation taken care of. I either will need to get a promotion I want or change my hours, or get a new job that fits better in my schedule. And after those two things, then we can make some decisions on our daughter's schooling next year. We've talked about home schooling and we are signed up for it but it really depends on our schedule.

And of course I need some debt removed but until we both have jobs again any sort of progress is just not possible.

be less lazy and eat more healthily. Not too much to ask! At least it's within my control.

I would need to hire a maid. I spend so much time playing housework catch up. I even skipped out of a graduation party last weekend because I was so overwhelmed and behind on everything. It stunk because the rest of my family had a great time. But I knew if I didn't at least finish some of the things on my list, I would have trouble sleeping Sunday night and going back to work Monday morning would have been *fun*. Oh the joys of being a working mom...

In order for my life to be in better balance (not perfect) I would need to learn to deal with feelings and how to express them better.

In order for my life to be in better balance I would need to ask DH for more help and stop trying to do everything myself.

I say not perfect since I'm learning that I can't be perfect and that there is no such thing as a perfect life.
