I'm about to lose my mind up in here...
(Up in here!)
How the h-e-double-hockey-sticks does this happen?!?!
HOW?!?!
I blink for a second (well, more like the fall season when I was off busy doing 3+ weddings a weekend for our business...) and our house is filled with STUFF! (<--- my most hated word, STUFF. Ugh!)
I was laying on the couch at a lovely hour of the morning (10 or so), still in my pj's, sipping some amazing coffee... you know- soaking in the lovely rewards of quitting our jobs all those years ago and being on our own schedules, dreams coming true really. When I started thinking that I should probably get up and do something productive with my day- but what should I do?
Then those lovely blinders came off as I looked around our house. What the heck? How does this happen?! Everything's a mess!
I walked into our daughters' room and it was like the 'girl' section of a major big box store threw up in there. WHAT ON EARTH?! I literally went through their toys LAST WEEK and scaled them down to 10 items each in their own little baskets. HOW did this happen?
Our laundry room is a danger zone... I guess that one is easy to forget since we keep the door closed... I still don't know what 80% of the stuff in there is.
And the dreaded kitchen counters.... sad part is that I think of the junk stacked on the counters, most of it is mine! 😱 I can't even yell at anyone for that.
So, here I am on a Thursday near afternoon, and I have my project for the day. Everything will be put on hold and the kids will join in the crusade (Surprise!) -- we are starting another round of STUFF removal! 💪 Luckily for everyone involved (insert sarcasm) I will happily video-document the entire not-glamorous-in-any-way process to share with y'all!
(In case you were wondering if I'd ever become one of those online people with the always perfect/all white house that claims "Oh yes, our house gets messy just like yours-- see, there's a not perfectly staged blanket sitting on the couch!" -- hahahahaha, NO. Real life here folks. Messy house, messy kids, lots of love!)
Anyone else feeling overwhelmed? Confused? Not sure where it all comes from yet there the junk is taking over your life and suffocating you?! Please say it's not just me! 😅
If so-- here's our FREE handy-dandy eBook where I spill my secrets on how we get a handle on things! (Even if you have had a handle on it... lose it due to you know, LIFE, and then re-claim your handle all over again.)
