I have officially given up on the 30 Day Writing Challenge (that was taking me way longer than 30 Days to complete). This is mostly due to the fact that my household is so chaotic that it is really hard to find time to write a thoughtful, insightful entry and partly due to the fact that every writing prompt led me back to the same conclusions and it was getting old writing about the same thing over and over in just slightly different ways.
Today has been especially chaotic. There was the usual Sunday morning contentions. It seems like hubby always finds something to be upset about on Sunday morning which makes my mood just go down in the dumps. Then our church meetings were good. We got home and the boys decided not to listen to me, which is normal. The straw that broke the camel's back was when while doing some light sweeping in the kitchen and starting dinner I find that my phone has been slathered with some sort of white paste-like substance and is sitting in a puddle of spilled pop which is on my conference copy of the Ensign. Everybody got sent to their rooms at that time. Fortunately my case prevented any actual harm to come to my phone. Every little thing has me on edge today and I really hope to get a good night's sleep and start over tomorrow.
Goodnight everyone.

Sweet Laura you deserve some peaceful moments to yourself:) You do so much for your family & church!!
How about instead of giving it up try a 52 weeks thing & take a chunk of time once a week for yourself to complete it....or even jot ideas down here & there through out the week.
I recently start a 52 Weeks of God's Inspiration knowing it would be easier with one thought a week rather than one a day....& I only have one child so I can't even imagine!
Best wishes to you:)
Maybe I will do that, do one a week till the challenge is done.
