Every single day I struggle with having enough time to get things done. Every evening when I look at the clock and it is 11 PM, I can’t help but feel like I did absolutely nothing and wasted so much of my time. There is so much that I want and need to get done but I feel I never have the time to do it all. But at the same time, I want to sit down and relax as well. I don’t want to be running around here and there until 11 PM and then go to bed and start doing the entire song and dance all over again the next day. Finding and keeping balance has never been my forte.

Most of my lack of motivation stems from the extreme disorganization in my home. I hate having stuff laying around everywhere, on floors, unorganized cabinets, etc. But has anyone looked at the price of organization equipment lately? I’m talkin’, storage bins and drawer organizers? They are so expensive and they add up so quickly that I don’t have the heart (or budget) to spring for them.

Gene and I are having our first garage sale on Saturday and I’m really hoping to get rid of a lot of our crap so that I can clean out our garage. The piles upon piles of crap in the garage are really starting to take a toll on my sanity. Hah. I need to invest in about 100 storage bins so that I can just put everything in a bin. Out of sight, out of mind… right? Anything we don’t sell on Saturday will be donated!

And I know I say this more than I should and I usually never come through with my promises but I really do want to try to write in this thing more often. I feel like I am not documenting our lives as much as I should. I don’t even have children yet but I somehow seem to be forgetting more and more with each passing day.
