Now its time to face myself

Now its time to face myself is what I thought as I loaded tupperware into the mangled drawer of mismatched plastic. Am I that unorganized? Is it my busy life? Is it my four kids, husband, and three animals. As I look around me there are baskets of papers and baskets of laundry waiting on me. I have convinced myself that if its in a basket it's semi organized. However now I have loads of baskets. The book shelves look like the library at my kids school (this is not a good thing). Getting rid of stuff has never been a problem for me. I take stuff to charity organizations and the auction almost monthly. Its the part C and E in SPACE I have trouble with. S =sort,P= Purge, A = assign, C= containerize, E= Equalize.
Now I am faced with my kids being at camp for a week. Just me and Blake and Lola, Lenny and Harold. I don't think I can Blame a 38 year old man and four furry four legged creatures if on Friday I am still looking at thesebaskets.
If you are religious I would be happy to take a little intercessory prayer on the task before me.
All kidding aside.

Tips for the day:

1. Set the timer for a specific amount of time to purge in a specific area.

2. Prioritize what area you would like to get to today.

3. Balance it out with something fun when you finish.

Namaste'

I'm off to set the timer........
