Guess What? I'm back...or at least trying to be

Well, I have been absent from this post for about 1 1/2 years.  I didn't intend to stop but my typical tendencies took over and I didn't take steps to get on top of them.  However, after walking through some pretty wicked postpartum anxiety I am going to give this a try again.  After the last "again" that I declared a long, long time ago.

As we all have read I am the queen of making plans that don't get completely finished.  So rather than making a plan to tackle, I will just tell everyone how things are going.  Like I mentioned I have pulled myself up out of a funk and honestly, I have seen how long I have lived with it by my habits around the house.  So many of the things I avoid actually have to do with anxiety.  I hate opening mail.  I dislike the very thought of it, so I let mail pile up.  Once I sit myself down to go through it the process is never as bad as I had it in my mind it would be.

So today, I began to straighten my garage.  This has been on my to do list for over a year.  Remember, it was originally on my plan that I created when coming up with this blog.  Well, I avoided it and avoided it.  I found one excuse after another.  Well, today I went out and started to straighten it.  I have made a huge ton of space and scheduled a pick up from Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kansas City.  This stuff will be gone to go help someone else by July 12!  Whoo hoo!

I think the next thing I want to address is the closet in the toy room.  I have opened a home daycare and need good storage for materials.  I will probably have to readdress the storage room to make space, but let's take it one step at a time. 

Happy Organizing!
