NO BETTER TIME THAN THE PRESENT?

Today is the day I start "ridding out." I have been in a serious funk lately. I'm guessing it is less funk and more depression than anything (gotta remember to take those anti-depressants everyday). My house is trashed. My life is complicated. I hate that I'm not enjoying this summer. So I need to pull myself out of this funk before it gets any worse. I've known this for a while, but knowing what I need to do is a whole different thing than actually doing what I need to do.

So today I am making two goals. I figure it's best to start out small that way the chance to succeed is way higher. :p

Goal 1: Take all the kids summer clothes they've outgrown to the resale shop. What they don't take, drop off at Goodwill.

Goal 2: Begin cleaning the clutter from the front room. It's ridiculous. There is so much junk in here I hate to come into the room. It actually makes me nauseous to look at it.

Those are 2 pretty attainable goals really. Especially since the big box of outgrown summer clothes is IN THE FRONT ROOM. Just getting that out and into the van will give me a start on clearing the clutter. :)

I've been told there's no better time than the present so I should get started. I think I'll crank up INXS' Switch album and get busy. I'll have to work on uncomplicating my life a little later. That's going to be a little bit bigger of a job. :(

OOh hon, I feel for you, I am sure a big clean out might help!!!! Our backyard was full of junk we recently decorated the girls bedrooms and alot of stuff just got chucked out there!!! Cleared it out on Saturday and it's a nice place to sit and enjoy the very little sunshine we are getting at the moment!!!!

We are so connected! I feel fine when I get motivated but if the house get trashed or I think about my MIL moving in...I just can't seem to deal!
I will make a list of things to do today and crank up the oldies!

hugs girlfriend!
