If only...

I have been pondering to myself, that if I integrated every weight loss, organization, home management, financial management, bible reading schedule, bible study SYSTEM that I want to..this is what my life would look like.

IF I was the PROVERBS 31 wife, I would get up at the crack of dawn and make bread
IF I followed FLYLADY, I would take a shower every morning and moisturize
IF I used the full line of MARY KAY, I would exfoliate also ...after a session of microderm abrasion once a week
IFI followed FLYLADY, I would dress to shoes
IF I followed a DAILY BIBLE READING SCHEDULE, I would read my bible before the children rise while the bread is baking in the oven
IF I followed WEIGHT WATCHERS, I would write down the coffee I drink while I read
IF I did my BETH MOORE bible study, I would read and study for 45 minutes
IF I was on a PRAYER schedule, I would pray for all my family, friends and our needs while not forgetting to thank God for everything He has already blessed me with
IF I was the perfect MOTHER, I would greet my children with a "good morning" smile, and a bowl of healthy oatmeal free of sugar or other additives that would mess up their perfect little metabolisms
IF I followed FLYLADY, the kids' clothes would already be laid out the night before, to make our mornings run smoothly. I would dress them with no stress.
IF I used my GYM membership like I should, I would go to the gym for an hour every morning
IF I used DAVE RAMSEY, I would have my cash at hand when I stop at the grocery store on the way home
IF I followed THE GROCERY GAME, I would have my grocery list and the respective coupons in hand
IF I was the perfect WIFE, I would have a hearty breakfast waiting at home when my husband arrived from work (he works night shift) ...and a promise of a little WINK WINK later (and be awake enough by then to follow through)
IF I was the perfect SISTER, FRIEND, DAUGHTER I would check on those in my life who needed cared for, prayed for, concerned for
IF I did all I should with DISCOVERY TOYS, I would make 5 phones calls, book a party, and make a sale each and every afternoon
IF I was a true FLYLADY, I would stay caught up on laundry, swish and swipe my bathroom, and "Zone" one room of my house once a month. My "hot spots" would stay picked up, and my "5 minute room rescues" would be worth the trouble
IF I followed CREATIVE CORRECTION, I would be brilliant with every "opportunity" to
teach my children
IF I followed SAVING DINNER, I would have gourmet meals every night...preplanned the week before
IF I was the perfect TEACHER, my kids would be read age-appropriate books while discussing the fine points of the stories, say prayers, and off to bed with smiles on faces
IF I followed the MARY KAY skin plan, I would clean all my makeup off and reapply the night solution, night cream
IF I was the perfect WIFE, I would still have energy by the end of the day to be a passionate lover and attentive best friend

IF I did all these things...

I would NOT let them watch as much TV as they do
I would NOT feel guilty for feeding my ten month old chocolate cake :)..yes, I did
I would NOT let them play outside, even on days it rains


But, I STILL would NOT feel like I did enough or was as good as I wanted to be.

So..I will take one day at a time, and use whatever system works for that day!
