This is The Homemaking Foundation's podcast with Jamie Belmay, episode number 25.

Welcome to the Homemaking Foundation's podcast, where we give you the tools,

inspiration, and encouragement you need to craft a gospel-centered home.

And now your host from youngwifesguide.com, Jamie Belmay.

Hey, thanks for joining me back here today for another episode.

We are just chugging along through January.

When this episode goes live, it is currently the second week of January.

And things are just moving along.

And I don't know about you, but I am slowly, very slowly, starting to get back into my rhythm

and kind of just my normal everyday routine after a very busy and very full Christmas season.

I know things always end up kind of chaotic during the Christmas season.

Usually my husband takes vacation the week after Christmas, which just throws all of our schedules

off, which is great because he's home. But it throws us off. And this year, my husband's the last

day at his job was actually December 18th. So it kind of felt like the last two weeks of December,

we were on vacation mode. And so we are just slowly, slowly starting to get back into

rhythm and routine. And it feels so good to get back on schedule, especially with little kids.

There's just something about being out of whack and being off schedule that just makes things

crazy. So I'm just so happy and thankful to get back to normal routines. And this is actually

thanks in a large part to a challenge that I'm doing right now called the Makeover Your Mornings

Challenge. I have an accountability group that is now called the Makeover Your Mornings Challenge.

I have an accountability group that is going through the Makeover Your Mornings course by Crystal Payne from MoneySavingMom.com.

And I've got an accountability group that is going through that course with me.
