My life looks a lot like yours, except minus the music portion and replace it with a kid portion! And replace coffee with diet dr. pepper! Viola, we live the same life!!
Can I tell you? I was getting ready for my womens leadership tea for this evening and I was messing around on Word trying to get a visual concept for how our strength is multiplied when I pour into them and they in turn pour their lives into other women. This tool is perfect! And so easy to use! Thank you Mandy!
Being a retired single guy my mind map is a lot simpler than yours.
Meal Plan
Exercise – Beach/Park
Family/Friends/Date Night
Entertainment – Internet/TV/DVD
Work- Bookkeeping for shelter (4-6 hrs?)
Health – Monitor blood/sugar & blood pressure
The only things on the above list that I “have” to do everyday are the meal plan and monitoring my blood sugar level (diabetic). No calendar, clock or watch, don’t hate me , and I still don’t have enough time to do everything I “want” to do.
Ed: didn’t you once say that my WW and Tam’s FIF helped you know when it was wednesday and friday, but those were the only days you were aware of during the week? haha!! ps: i wish i had “beach” on my list.
If it were mine, add one kid, one husband with severe food issues, 3 businesses, 1 book getting published, and that’s probably about it. Hey chica…would you come join my contest??
oh. i wish you could see the smile on my face from that HYSTERICAL comment. you’re so right!!! paragraph after paragraph after resume after paragraph, and i STILL don’t know what you do. please. just make me a mind map of your life. i won’t bother you anymore.
TAMMY!!! do you even know how much you make me laugh? do you?? bless your heart. you make me a list and i’ll fix a map for you. that way you won’t get lost in life anymore…
Cat: LOL!!! ah huh! we’ll see. if we win, we get a care package. oh yay!!!
Hahaha, that’s clever. I like that double dates are in personal, but date night is in marriage. Is that because they are just more about having fun or is that because you have to drag your hubby along on them? Haha, mostly kidding! Some guys just don’t do the double date thing well, though.
i decided NOT to follow that link. not to even click on it. or hover over it. cause it would suck me in for a very long time. and i think i would feel even more overwhelmed by my life if i saw it all mapped out like that. yes, overwhelmed indeed.

brandi: i forgot “drinking margaritas with brandi” – what was i thinking???
@: that just makes me happy!!
becca: i’m sure, one day, yours will look as nuts.
kristi: drew plays softball. drew plays softball.
tam: if you went to the sight, you’d easily know how to do this. but, whatever, don’t worry about it. just keep blogging!!!
Ed: didn’t you once say that my WW and Tam’s FIF helped you know when it was wednesday and friday, but those were the only days you were aware of during the week? haha!! ps: i wish i had “beach” on my list.

coming right now! yay for contests!!!
sweetness, if we had this during our e/m conversation when I was trying to explain what I do…it would have been a heck-o-lotta easier!!!
and right…”liesure” under the marriage category…sure.
oh. i wish you could see the smile on my face from that HYSTERICAL comment. you’re so right!!! paragraph after paragraph after resume after paragraph, and i STILL don’t know what you do. please. just make me a mind map of your life. i won’t bother you anymore.
So you in??
Oh and PS…love margaritas!
LOL where do you come up with these things?! You are so resourceful! I don’t know if I want to try mine; I may feel inadequate?! Love you!
blessed: i’m thinking about it. it was more involved than i thought… but i’m interested. am gonna slow down and think about it.
gchyayles: love you!!! inadequate? no way. not at all. oh. and i found it via stumbleupon.com
pretty cool. i am actually scared at what mine would look like, so i’ll just stick to lists scribbled on the backs of envelopes. =)
sarah:how many envelopes have i written all over before heading to the grocery store??!!
workin on it now…we’ll see how far we go tonight on this mind map of mine…hope i don’t get lost
hehehe!!!
you let me know if you get lost – i’ll come find you. that’s the kind of map that i can read!
you doin’ mind maps. i’m doin’ scripture memory videos. oh the JOYS of bible study this summer!!!
just finished…but i don’t think it’ll help much. Let’s just pretend I’m a center ring circus ballerina!
scripture memory videos…sounds impressive!
ballerinaP:
i hope beth moore thinks it’s impressive!
but it’s not as impressive as your mind map thingy…
beth moore will take one look at mandy mac and throw out 5 years of old Oprah magazines just to put you on the best spot in the library!!!
i DID go to the site
TAMMY!!! do you even know how much you make me laugh? do you?? bless your heart. you make me a list and i’ll fix a map for you. that way you won’t get lost in life anymore…
Cat: LOL!!! ah huh! we’ll see. if we win, we get a care package. oh yay!!!
ps: cathi, that was another one of those times where i’m not really sure of the meaning of your words, but i still like them.
Oh Crap! you said “bless you heart”
that can’t be good
and “your” too
sigh
tammy: was it past your bedtime?
Hahaha, that’s clever. I like that double dates are in personal, but date night is in marriage. Is that because they are just more about having fun or is that because you have to drag your hubby along on them? Haha, mostly kidding! Some guys just don’t do the double date thing well, though.
