What? Me, Organized?
How do you stay organized? Between books, game pieces and plastic kitchen lids, even the best organized of us may need a bit of help. But I tell ya…I was extremely organized — before child!

Well, it’s one of those days where I feel overwhelmed. There’s way too much to do. It’s like I feel there is so much that I don’t know what to do first. I start doing something and get way too involved and get nothing done. That’s what happened yesterday; got too involved, it turned into a project and nothing was accomplished.

So today when I woke up, I thought I’d try again. I am starting with the bathroom. I am going really slow. I did the right side between the toilet and the sink. Took a break, and got myself involved in another project. I stopped that and put it down. I went back to the bathroom and did the left side between the toilet and the bathtub.

Now my problem is where am I going to put all the toys? Barbies, bath toys, bubble stuff… I already have more than 1/2 a garbage bag full of trash. Containers that need to be washed and refilled with q-tips, shampoo and other stuff are in a bucket. Lots of hair bands which I’m going to put into a baggie for now. And how do you clean a plunger? Well, searching for a proper way to care for them, I found this: The Blue Goo Story - so, no more blue goo.
