organization... schmorganization

since my last "organization" post...
i made a list.
put some laundry away.
organized and reorganized the dishwasher like 400 times.
picked up 7 gazillion toys (we do NOT need this many toys!!!).
took jace to the dentist... twice!
did a little yelling... some crying.
decided that organizing is for the birds and will.never.happen at this stage of life.
threw up my hands...
and sat on the couch wishing i could eat some chocolate chip cookie dough.

any suggestions???

Hang in there, Kim! Organization doesn't happen overnight...it's a process. Every time you find something you can get rid of (and get rid of it) is a victory! And don't over-organize. Even if the toys all get thrown together into one (or two or three) big bins, if they are contained that's good enough. Especially if the boys can then clean up by themselves! Maybe in a few months or years you can organize those 3 big bins into smaller categories... it's just a long process. I still can't keep my house organized, and it's just Tim and I! But it gets better every year.

Love you!
