Why am I blogging instead of sleeping?

It is nearly 4a.m. and I am blogging instead of sleeping. I have no idea why, but I seem to by wide awake and have no interest in trying to lay down and go to sleep. I have not been blogging much lately, but feel like I really need to get back to it so I can verbalize (or textualize) my thoughts. (at this hour I get to make up my own words) I have been feeling like there are a few things in my life that need to change. Nothing "major" but just things. One thing is that I need to be much better about keeping up with chores around the house. Another is to be more organized around the house. I also want to lose weight and start cooking healthier for my family. I have come to realize that I need to cook much healthier and teach my children much better eating habits. I do not fry everything we eat and we do not eat a ton of sweets and so on, however, we do snack more than I would like. We definitely eat out way too much and we just don't eat a large enough variety of vegetables and things. This will be my goal over the next couple of months is to completely revamp the way I cook and make sure that I am creating a variety of healthy meals for us all. I am also going to be cutting down (one or two meals a week) on the amount of meat we consume. It is not a bad thing to eat meat, but it is not necessary to eat it with every meal. Well, I suppose I need to try to get to bed. Hopefully I will be awake throughout the day tomorrow. :)
