It is not about this place... it is about these people!

It is not about this place... it is about these people!

I am trying to find/create a challenge for myself. It is hard to work and be a mom and do everything that needs to be done. But to be honest.... how well was I really doing before I started working....

Do not get me wrong, I am not talking perfect house and mess of a family! I am talking happy family in a home that makes them feel loved and safe. No one is going to flip out over a few dishes in the sink or pick to vacuum instead of helping Josh with his homework or playing a board game as a family!

But something needs to be done. So from now until January first I plan to come up with, well.... a plan. A challenge of some sort that will involve me making little changes for the next 365 days. So I guess...stay tuned...

I am on a mission myself for the new year...not only for me personally but also for the basement! I have it all envisioned neatly organized with stacked (and labeled!) rubbermaid tubs and a food pantry area set up as well! So I fully support you on your mission!

Thanks Steph! I can not believe how much worse the house looks now that Christmas is over. It is like a toy factory blew up in here!
