I have been discussing re-arranging / organizing my shoes and mentioned it in an email to a friend. She replied back days later and innocently asked how the shoe thing went and I had to admit that I had done NOTHING. But you know, I organized the shoes that night! Nothing like a little accountability... You'll get that back room done - your blog will force you to! ;) .-= Juice´s last blog post ..<a href="http://allthingsjuice.wordpress.com/2010/03/26/grandma-corbi-youre-all-right/" rel="nofollow">Grandma Corbi, You’re All Right</a> =-.

I am sooooo glad I am not alone in this. I am tackling my little closet in baby steps and hope to be done by mid-April. LOL Between work and tending to my 2 kids, hubby and dog, it's hard to find the time to get in there and really work. Maybe break the task down into little bits and that way you feel that you're making progress but also get to spend that all-important time with your family. .-= Tiffanie ´s last blog post ..<a href="http://findingmyinnerhomekeeper.blogspot.com/2010/03/my-closet-runneth-over.html" rel="nofollow">My Closet Runneth Over</a> =-.

We are fortunate enough to have a nice big attic to store our "stuff" in. Teh downside is that we use it as an excuse to not have to make decisions about stuff...just send it to the attic! We've been slowly trying to get rid of stuff, and I'll tell you, it is just so overwhelming! Today we took a trunkload of stuff to Goodwill. Honestly, you wouldn't even know it by looking at our attic. But hey, it's something, right? .-= Tiffany´s last blog post ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/StuffParentsNeed/~3/_N4udf9awCk/shopping-advice-needed.html" rel="nofollow">Shopping Advice Needed!</a> =-.

So true. Sadly, my big, unappealing project is.....the laundry. My kitchen will be spotless, projects finished, floor mopped, and new projects started.

Dirty diaper laundry and 4 hungry little tummies call me much louder than messes! I miss an organized house, but there will be a time when my house is clean and I will miss the kids instead.
