I’m desperately trying to restore some order around my house! While I managed to get all this stuff put away, I’m still trying to find the island in our kitchen which is covered with school forms, old homework, mail, catalogs, crumbs, Christmas cards, appointment reminder cards, my old calendar, my new calendar, returned Christmas cards I have to resend, receipts and dozens of post-it notes to remind me of all the other things I have to do.
My dining room is filled with dirty laundry on the floor and clean laundry to be folded. While I know I’ll never be “caught up with the laundry” I’d be happy if my mornings didn’t start with “Mom/Honey, Do I have any clean underwear?” NO!!!!! But soon.

My desk is covered with more post-it notes and the instruction manuals and cords for all the electronic gadgets the girls got for Christmas that we’re trying to upload, download and offload so I can get my desk back!
So, I’ve been thinking of you all and look forward to resuming my online life. But for now my offline life is taking up all of my time.
Happy New Year!!!
