Distractions…

It doesn’t take much to distract me. Especially from work. Well, housework, mainly.

I was just in this mood to go through things and toss…toss…toss. So I picked up a few books on dating/single life and figured, “I don’t need ‘em. Let’s toss ‘em!” And then I got to thinking, “but they are pretty current, and in good shape. Maybe I could donate them to a library.” So, now that is on my to do list. Call the library and the Goodwill to see if they take books. (I figure I am saving some landfill somewhere).

So then I did toss some stuff. But then got distracted once again by a CD with photos on it. Photos from 2 summers ago when Conrad and I went with my cousins Elaine and Jonathan to Disney World! Those were some good times! More on that later…but first, some pictures. Continue reading »

Operation Organization Part #?

I think this is really the 2nd entry in my Operation Organizational Adventure…sadly I am not sure. Sign of not being organized? Heh, I could just go back through the blogs. Anyhow, I wanted to report to you, my faithful blog readers (the three of you) because I said I would.

The closet: Yep. Started putting maternity clothes in a box and also boxing up Kayle’s clothes that he (sniff sniff) has already (boo hoo) outgrown (wiping tear). Wow. Can’t believe he is 15 weeks old already. My baby is growing up! (composing myself). It is a process, the closet I mean. Well, growing up is too. I have not finished it but hopefully by this evening I will feel like I have completed the first phase.

The desk: ahhh yikes. Scarier than a haunted house at Halloween. Ok. well, I did go through some papers and clean off a spot (moved it all underneath) so this will take a little longer. Progress: I have put some things into folders to help keep track. And I have been looking into online calendars to help with my to do list.

I feel in the mood to clean. Which, right there, is half the battle. Wouldn’t you agree! Motivation is key. So let me quit this before the mood changes! (um, honey, I am talking about the cleaning mood. no need to rush home!)

Organization. Friend or Foe?

For me, I would thrive more if I was organized. Or so I am hoping. My apt. is a little choatic at the moment and I contribute that to lack of organization.

But you know what? To be organized, you first have to have money and time to invest in coming to that organized state. I do think that if I was more organized I would waste less time and money. Don’t you? (yes, my darling husband, I see you nodding!) Continue reading »
