Home Sweet Simple Home


Fever?

9:16 AM, 2008-Mar-20 .. Posted in Homekeeping .. 1 comments .. Link
 I don’t know what made me think that Holy Week would be the week that things would be “back to normal” here. And I simply dread to think that this is the new normal. In fact, I forbid this cockeyed busy-ness from being the new normal. Simply forbid it. Period.
I will get things back on track. I have been inspired to do a simple re-check of my Home Manual, doing any necessary updating etc. Where did I get inspired? Why this lovely lady stopped by and left a comment plus linked me to her post on home management binder/journals.
But before I get to that- I’ve got to unbury my desk. I doubt I’ve ever let it get so piled and disorganized before. Mr. Steady likes to tease me about the fact that I keep our home neat, tidy and organized except for my home office. My office is another matter entirely. I’ve got boxes of books on the floor because there is no more room on the shelves. Stacks of paper here and there (organized but not pretty looking). Some of Mr. C’s toys have migrated in, a printer in one corner (for parts) and oodles upon oodles of school books stacked all over.
Perhaps I’m getting spring cleaning fever?
After all- today is the first day of Spring!

You sound like me dear. Trying to get things back on track, but it doesn't seem to be working here either. Going to get my schedule out and revise here as well.

Could you share the website to the home management binders perhaps??

God's Blessings,
Amy Jo

The Wagner Clan

My Husband (DH)-
Mr. Steady

My rock and biggest supporter. The glue that keeps the family sane. He is like deep, deep water- it takes a lot to see a ripple.

DD11- Our Maiden in Waiting- By the world's standard she's a 'tween'. By ours and the Lord's- this is the time of her years of preparation. She is eagerly learning what it means to keep a home and daily becomes more and more of a helper to her Mama.

DD8- Sassafras My Sassy middle child. She holds her own so sweetly and has such an empathetic heart. While real Sassafras is used for flavoring- She is that added spice of flavor to our family.

DS4- Mr. Conductor- The train aficionado in the family. He likes to think he's in charge and often is! He's also the biggest Oreo fiend in the family.
