My first grader had four or so weekly homework packets never turned in. Today I stumbled across a sign-up sheet.

And I tell you - a bigger house will NOT solve your problems either... except maybe give you one room you can clear all your crap out of by throwing into all the other rooms. Maybe that's something. You should get that "Confessions" book. It really had awesome tips.

You must have a lot on your mind! I hope you find your answers, and pass them on to the rest of us! <br /><br /><3 MelMel Simshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00049364935057645459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697967492776217409.post-4664704633607178662010-05-27T07:37:30.968-06:002010-05-27T07:37:30.968-06:00Being a mother..with time, I think even the most o...Being a mother..with time, I think even the most organized woman tend to lose it.<br /><br />I don't always succeed, but to keep organized...I start by keeping a calendar in the kitchen. I use that calendar to mark all upcoming events. I also carry a notebook with pages designated for my To-Do lists. I allow myself to literally mark off things completed..it keeps me motivated.

I procrastinate my homework, so I don't get to use my organized desk like I should. I don't actually read the books on my Shlefari of Goodreads shelf; I just look at how pretty they are.<br /><br />Jenni Elysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08403700912436098391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697967492776217409.post-45388419383499012002010-05-26T12:20:42.309-06:002010-05-26T12:20:42.309-06:00I'm OCD.

I have a lot of appointments going on with my kids and stuff, and in order to keep track I have a giant white board calendar in my kitchen to write everything down, plus there is room for notes, for example:<br /><br /> may 10-Ivy's Heart appt-pick up sedative Rx. <br /><br />It helps a little.Rochelle Brunsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12824610739457723401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8697967492776217409.post-21728197368144838102010-05-26T10:14:29.792-06:002010-05-26T10:14:29.792-06:00Uhh......I got nothing.
