In this unique season of family , we have the opportunity to be intentional about our self-care, our relationships, and even taking care of the home we live in.

Sometimes we need a little vision, though. A plan. Some ideas that get us heading in the right direction.

If you missed my introduction to “Today’s Opportunity Plan,” you can find it here.

Here are your day 31 opportunities:

✝️Your soul:
Read the first chapter in Philippians today. Underline or write down any verse you can specifically apply to your life.

?You:
Intentionally schedule “me time” on your calendar for the rest of 2020, then if you have children, work on a childcare option that will work for you. Think of trading “me time” with another mom, or having a “dad’s in charge” time once a week, or utilizing family members (once Covid-19 is over) on a regular schedule.

?Marriage:
Give each other foot massages (or back massages if you don’t touch feet!) and share your high and low for the day.

?‍?‍?Kids:
Everyone outside for 15 minutes minimum each day.

Kids: If you built a “reading tent” yesterday and it’s still up, turn it into a playhouse today. Encourage them to turn it into their “house” with their stuffed animals being the people in the house.

Teens: Give your teen a heads up that you’ll probably need to start mowing the yard soon. If you haven’t already, put them in charge of that task. Make sure they get a good training on mowing safety and how to mow.

?‍♀️Exercise:
20 push ups today. (Yes, on your knees counts!)

?Contact:
Send your pastor(s) a note in the mail today letting them know how much you appreciate them.

?House/Homemaking
Wash all your throw blankets in the house today. They’ve probably been getting used more than usual with everyone home!

?Clothes:
Clean out your purse and your wallet today!

You’ve got a unique opportunity today! Use it well!
