Overwhelmed
Everybody has those days. You know, the ones where you look around at everything you have to do and become paralyzed by the sheer VOLUME of work you have to do. You don’t know where to start. That’s so very much me today. Kevin and I have been gone for almost two weeks. The tree is still up, the lights are still on the house, the laundry is piled high, there is dog hair in the bed (and on the floor, and in the carpet), there are Christmas presents to put away, there is about an inch of dust covering everything, and we’ve missed two weeks of trash pickup. All of this is in addition to the massive organization overhaul that I’ve promised for 2007.
I really can’t ever recall having quite this much to do around the house, and it’s going to take me weeks to do everything I want, so for right now, I think I’ll just start with washing the sheets and see where that takes me. Damn, but there’s a lot of work in my future.

Organization is on my resolutions list, too. 🙂 You’ll feel better once it’s all done! 😀
Happy New Year!

I am convinced, just like weight loss, organization is a life-style change! 🙂
Thankfully I only work 3 days and then have the weekend to do my domestic chores. It makes me nuts to go back to work with all the domestic work lingering!

Love you.
