Starting all over again....

Here I go again.... starting a blog. Why, I ask myself, why do I do this. Start something that I will keep up for 2 weeks, only to leave it because I don't really have the time to keep going??!! Well, its pretty cheap as far as therapy goes... and I definitely need therapy!!

This year, on New Years day (typical, I know), I set a goal for myself for the next year. To organize my house. The plan is to go from room to room, de-clutter and organize. We have started, slowly. First the kids rooms, then the closets, living room, kitchen, basement, garage, laundry room, our room. everything. I want to live with less, enjoy the things we have, not let our 'stuff' stress us out. But... lately I have been realizing that the clutter and disorganization are symptomatic of whats going on inside me....


The last couple of months have been pretty rough on me. I started something new, something I thought would be wonderful for me and my family, only to discover that I want different things than I thought I did. Success, money, and perceived importance are not what they seem. I have 2 beautiful kids, a fabulous husband, loads of family and lots of friends. Those are more important to me than anything else.

So in addition to organizing my house, I am going to attempt to organize my life. I think that it will be interesting to see how they relate to each other. I think an entire life change is in order. There are somethings that are really important to me... my husband, my kids, etc., things I don't want to effect negatively. And there are other things that I want completely different than they are right now. I would like to use this blog to document my journey. Hopefully I will be able to look back in 6 months, a year, 2 years and see how far I've come.


hopefully....
