Today I thought in addition to posting my menu for next week, that I would post a very basic version of the control journal that I use daily. I didn’t post the actual one for safety reasons, as well as because if you are just starting, or need to work on your very own Control Journal, this gives you a great basic start to your all of your routines. If you would like to see my actual CJ, feel free to email me. But, please make sure you put “Simplistic Motherhood” in the subject line, or you risk the chance of not getting a response. If you are just starting your control journal, now isn’t the time to be a little miss perfection. The simpler the better! If you would like to share your CJ, post a link in the comments section and I will be sure to check it out, as well as take a look at your blog.
