Mothering Many

That’s what I am doing around here. It seems this family of many has accumulates enough stuff to fill several Condo Hotels. At least you would think so if you saw my living room. See, I am “clean sweeping” our house, but I am doing it while we are still living here, and also while I am teaching and working and doing all the other stuff I do. Yeah. Fun times, for sure. But let me tell you, my kitchen sure looks nice, and my room, it’s looking fine, too. Oh, and my bathroom. The rest of the house, well……..it’ll get there.

Yeah, I know I said I did this in December. And at the time, I thought I had. But back in December, I basically just cleaned around stuff. I did send some out, but not enough, and I still had to move this to get to that, stretch over and slide around, etc. I’m so over that. Less is totally more, just like they say.

I did my room this week. It took me four days to get my stuff done, and I did dh’s today. And I sent 5 bags of stuff to trash/goodwill in the process. Life is too short to fight with dresser drawers, and today, when my t-shirt drawer would not close when I put away the laundry?? I put four more in the goodwill pile. I have felt the glide, see, and the glide is good.
