The kids broke the dresser and completely destroyed Mary's room. She has taken all of her clothes off again, and I am getting more,and more sick, but all in all life is good. By pulling the,bed apart, I will,be forced to put it together more securely, and maybe I'll nail the dresser to the wall, or at least think of a way to keep them from taking out the drawers.
Yesterday, I folded and sorted all of Mary's clothes. So, it is a bit upsetting to see them strewn all over her room, but it reminds me that I really ought to streamline everything and find a better home for those boxes from years ago, or I risk becoming like my grandmother.
This gives me a better purpose and shows me exactly where I am needed. I do have 6 more hours to dedicate to "homemaking". Plus, when Mary Anne sees me cleaning up she will see it as a pattern to follow. She already knows that I hate messes and calls them bad.
I think the biggest cause of mess is clutter, the solution is not better storage, but fewer things.
I plan to start in her room and just make,everyroom nicer and neater and make a large number of trips to the dumpster.
Happy Valentine's Day!
