Life of Chaos

As many of you know I have "A" type personality ( I know shocker!) I am very rigid in all areas of my life except for one! Keeping my house clean! I absolutely hate and dread housework! Some people find it therapeutic but I find it a roadblock to the rest of my life. I know that when the day comes I can have a maid then I will be in heaven! I love a clean house however sometimes I just find it hard to keep it that way and let's be honest my dear husband isn't much of a help in this area! However, I have discovered that the more disorganized and dirty my house is the more I feel my life is spinning into a world of chaos! When this happens, all I can say is "Look out" because Hurricane Melissa is not a pretty sight and anything or anyone in my path is in trouble! Most of the time the person who gets the brunt of this is my husband! God love him!


I had every intention of spending part of my vacation straightening...ahem I mean cleaning the house. The plan was to start in one room and work my way from one room to the next and eventually cleaning, organizing and purging all rooms, closets and nooks/crannies. However in the end, I was not very productive or successful in my endeavor as I had hoped! I only got my closet and dresser organized! So for the next month this is the plan to work on each room and get it done! Maybe I will be even ahead of schedule for the whole "Spring Cleaning" thing!

I know the feeling of the mental spinning that comes with physical chaos. It's not pretty. You should check out flylady.net. She helps people change that very thing, working in 15 minute increments. It's very encouraging.
