Speaking of clutter, I just swept, vacuumed, washed clothes, and I'm sure I've forgotten something. Oh, and learning the new job is not as easy as I first assumed....<br /><br />Can't tell you the last time I was able to write anything, and I'm sure that pretty soon it will only get worse! But I won't let that stop me from trying to find time for it.<br /><br />HUGS<br />Trishwackycajunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03613860179431862914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362647006692902502.post-80057090106399805772012-02-21T17:22:42.468-06:002012-02-21T17:22:42.468-06:00I am changing, surprising to realize (for me).

For years attending school, I could carve a little hole for myself on the couch and surround myself with books, notes, papers, etc. and step in and out as needed. When the boys were young and I held down a fulltime job (sometimes two), I had the ability to shut out everything around me except what I was doing at the time. Guess I've lost that degree of concentration, because I can't tolerate chaos any more. Every now and then, I'll look around and think, "That's enough." Then I throw away and consolidate. (And inevitably the next week I need what I just got rid of.LOL) Good post.Barbara Bettishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16540961829243251471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362647006692902502.post-15497985256579682242012-02-21T09:46:58.123-06:002012-02-21T09:46:58.123-06:00I hear ya Lori!

Promotion takes up a lot of time and cleaning has taken a back seat, LOL I've done that too - invited company over just so I HAVE to get the place spic 'n span! Besides - don't they say a little dirt is good for a kids immune system??

Sometimes I force it, like scheduling a baby shower in MY house a couple of weekends from now. It'll force me to clean and de-clutter. I'm lucky I have a hubby who doesn't mind cleaning, because since I've started publishing my books, I've pretty much let things go to hell in a hand basket around my house. Writing and marketing books is like having children in the house...cleaning usually takes a back seat to it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02223323805359502083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362647006692902502.post-17734491288329331372012-02-20T15:49:23.694-06:002012-02-20T15:49:23.694-06:00I agree Jenn - with 4 kids I can stand a little me...I agree Jenn - with 4 kids I can stand a little mess, but then it gets too much! That's when I get grumpy and we all clean, LOL<br /><br />Yeah, Cara - changing my hair color just makes me feel like I've done something different.

Since I have a messy husband and 2 messy children -- all of whom can come home and start making piles of shoes, clothes, belongings, etc etc, I've learned I have to tolerate some degree of mess. But not much. Every once in awhile when it gets to be more than I can stand, we have a "come to Jesus" meeting and they all pitch in a help clean up their mess. And it lasts for a little while. Mostly I clean everyday to keep on top of it. Keeping the house straight really equals keeping the "crazy" out of my life! Well, for the most part. Seeing everything in place, the laundry all done and the floors shining/vacuumed makes me so happy it's unreal. I know, I know, that makes me weird.......... Gonna go sweep the kitchen floor now ;)Jennifer Jakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13012313645373633840noreply@blogger.com
