Life Unorganized

If you walked into my house today you would think I was a pig - my house is not dirty by any means - it is cluttery! It is unorganized! It is driving me crazy! If Santa were real and I could wish for anything - it would be a maid - or at the very least a cleaning service. So, in a little over a week a new year begins and there are goals to be set. But, this year will be different - I will actually accomplish my goal. It is just one - to declutter my house and life and keep it organized. I realize that I do need help though - so, that is why my children and husband will be helping me from now on. Each one having jobs that they can do on their own daily. O will obviously need a little help - he is only 18 months. But, as for my other boys - J included - they can manage quite sufficiently on their own.
I am ashamed to admit that it is not just my home that is unorganized – my life is unorganized. I used to call myself “laid back” – but I am now beginning to question that term. Am I really laid back – or am I lazy? Unmotivated? A procrastinator? Probably a little of all of them. I also have a tendency to spread myself too thin. I get too much going on and the essentials suffer – i.e. cleaning my home, laundry, cooking, reading with E, time with J, our budget. So, I need to have a plan……….any ideas?? This is my life – unorganized, but not for long.
