I'm so excited that I've had several comments lately! I guess I can no longer say that no one is reading my blog. Of course, I feel panic along with that excitement. What if I can't keep it up? I fully expect to have times of failure, but I'm in this for the long haul, so I'm determined to keep going, one dirty dish at a time. Or 30 dirty dishes … [Read more...]

Wearing Pantyhose On My Head
I love to wear scarves in my hair. It creates a dramatic look for when I'm in an artsy-fartsy mood. I have three main choices: a hot pink one with polka-dots that can only be worn with a few outfits, a white one that I rarely wear because it makes me look like either I just had brain surgery or have a wad of toilet paper stuck on my head, and … [Read more...]
Daily Checklist and a little dose of honesty
Today I: Made bed. Emptied dishwasher. Cleaned kitchen. Swept kitchen. Checked bathroom floors for stuff. Remembered to start thawing chicken for tonight's dinner. Did my new non-negotiable. Since a 5 minute maintenance pickup is my new habit for the week, I looked around to see that the main areas were pretty well already … [Read more...]
Thank Goodness for Tackle it Tuesday!
I have issues. If you've read this blog before, you already know that. If you haven't, it won't take long for you to figure it out. I'm a slob, BUT I don't like to waste time. Doesn't make sense at all, right? Issues. I love Tackle it Tuesday (this linky party is no longer live.) It seems pretty much tailor-made for this blog. I'm … [Read more...]
Fighting the Urge to Ignore the Kitchen
Here we are in the middle of a hectic week. I have several big projects hanging over my head that have deadlines this week. I HAVE to get them done. I can't explain how strong the urge is to ignore the kitchen. It's just one night. The other things are much more important. No one at the events will care about how clean my kitchen was on Monday … [Read more...]
First day of my new non-negotiable
I added a 5-minute-general-pick-up to my list of non-negotiables this week. I did this today right before lunch. My house is quite clean right now, so I was tempted to fall back into my normal habit of thinking it was good enough. I want to catch the little things before they turn into big things. The little things I caught were: Put away the … [Read more...]
Panic
I got into bed last night and was startled to notice, AFTER getting in, that my bed was not made. I panicked. I had taken a Sunday nap, and thought maybe that was why, but could see that my husband's side was unmade as well. I hadn't made the bed at all yesterday, and I hadn't noticed. That's what brings the panic. I'm trying so hard to keep my … [Read more...]
Menu Plan Monday – Woohoo!
So strange that I'm this excited over menu planning. When Laura over at orgjunkie.com says that menu planning is a great way to start getting organized, she's right. I'm not sure why, but she is. It actually seems that my kitchen stays cleaner when I have meals planned. This is a crazy week. My quite-intense Bible Study begins this week as does … [Read more...]
