The Trouble with Organizing

Oops. I haven't written in a while. I got really busy getting ready for an art show, and as soon as it ended, the weather got gorgeous and I've been out of the house for 6-10 hours a day, just to avoid the stress of my house getting trashed behind me as I attempt to clean with a couple of unruly boys impeding my efforts.

Well, I can say that the storage unit continues to be the thing that is saving me from utter despair at this time. We still have plenty of things stacked up and ready to take over there! And more to follow, as I've decided we need an almost toy-free house for the summer.

Other than that the only triumph has been finally getting into the habit (most days) of having the kids brush their teeth in front of the bathroom mirror. This is a major change. Because when we chase them around the house with toothbrushes, we lose the toothbrushes. And the toothpaste. Such a subtle shift, but so important to my psyche.

I realize that this is not a very uplifting post, but nevertheless I think I had to write it in order to move to a higher vibrational level. One step at a time!
