Sadly, this came in a while ago. I just have been so busy with school and work I haven’t had a chance to participate yet! I was tagged by Multitasking Mama to list 6 random things about me that you all may not know. So, here goes!
1. I have a fear of public restrooms. I’ll [...]

Ugh. I don’t like Monday’s. They’ve never been a favorite day of mine. Usually it’s a day to go back to work or school, though it doesn’t mean either of those two things for me for another month. I just don’t like getting up on Monday morning. I mean, it isn’t like I have partied [...]

I have no picture of the “before” for today’s tackle. It was sort of an impromptu thing. A few months ago, we bought a big potted plant with 6 different herbs and a tomato plant. In my kitchen window a basil plant has been sitting and so has Zach’s pea plant that he planted at [...]

After some quick calculating, it’s been determined that the twins had been in school 4 1/2 weeks longer than the rest of their classmates by the time school ended yesterday. They didn’t, of course, realize this, thank goodness. I mean, they understood that they had been [...]

I approached today’s tackle a bit differently. I didn’t tackle something that had to be cleaned, but rather something that needed to be “set up” in anticipation of school starting in the fall. Yes, I know, I’m 2 months early. There’s just so much that’s going to change when we all (myself included) start back [...]

This week wasn’t nearly as harried as last week. It seemed I had a bazillion appointments and conferences all lumped into last week. This week, I’ve spent cleaning the house. A little bit here and a little bit there. I’ve also decided to print out FlyLady’s control journal [...]

Today’s Tackle It Tuesday was fun. Why was it fun? Because it wasn’t my tackle! And I had fun dumping out the toys for the boys to clean up. Yes, that sounds like I was being a mean mommy, but I went to the playroom looking for something and couldn’t find it. While their floor [...]

This really is more of a “tackle every day” sort of challenge around here. It became more of a challenge after our recent vacation. Not to mention that I still had not purged the winter clothes from the drawers and closet. I bit the bullet today and did just that, leaving only a few fall/winter [...]
