b. Think about: What can I do tonight that will make tomorrow morning easier? (make lunches?)
c. Gather up items that you do not want to forget and place them in a spot by the door. Make sure you can see them before you walk out.
d. Start Breakfast: Set table and plan what you are cooking (just make a mental note).
e. If you plan to use the crock pot, then get some of those things ready so all you have to do is throw it together.
f. Lay out your clothes for tomorrow. It is a simple thing that saves lots of time by being decisive. If something needs to be ironed, or has a spot on it, you can deal with it in a calm manner or choose to wear something else. Take it to the cleaners on your errand day, launder it, or fix that missing button according to your schedule - no pressure. All the stress has been relieved.
