Today in my inbox was a comment made on here from my dear friend, Becky, who, sarcastically I'm sure, commented that I haven't blogged in 13 days. This would be my friend Becky who last blogged on her blog on December 11 and before that September 5. So...to Becky and all of you out there...I shall post another post today...as boring as it may be.
I feel extremely busy and a little overwhelmed lately. I'm trying hard to get things organized and together in this house. Last week my sister helped me clean a big part of the basement. I can't even believe how much trash/donations we had. That part of the basement looks great...now to the other part. We have limited storage because we have a 1/2 basement and then crawlspace. Yeah, I won't be going in there anytime soon (barf! Shiver!). Colin has so many things from school since he has taught 6 different subjects and doesn't have a room this year, so all of his stuff is being stored in our small basement. I did put some of the stuff in the front of the crawlspace, just to get it out of the way. We also have things like the mattresses for Henry's bed (if we ever move him from his crib) down there too...just so much stuff!
Anyway, then tonight I cleaned out my closet and drawers. I have 6 HUGE bags of things to donate tomorrow. I listed them all for tax purposes and I there were over 100 things I'm getting rid of...wow. There's more anxiety there related to all that, but not worth going into on here.
Let's see...the kids love each other or hate each other lately, so that's fun. Henry worships Abigail and she treats him like dirt a lot. Every day is a trip, that's for sure!
I'm kind of in a foul mood right now, but trying to be positive. In light of recent tragedy in our community I am trying to be better about loving and appreciating what I have, especially my wonderful family. I have absolutely no reason to be in a foul mood...so I'm going to bed to wake up happy, appreciative and ready to love on my family.

Sometimes we are just grumpy to be grumpy - we know there is no reason necissarily, but we just need to be. Hope you woke up renewed - a lot of times just saying we are going to wake up in a good mood works!!!
Good attitude! And thank you for giving me the gift of your Bethany-ism in your opening paragraph. Touche. :)
(And thanks again for the coupons!)
hahaha thats hilarious. abby treats him like dirt but he worships her... hopefully he wont realize that she treats him like crap someday.

it's good to recognize that you are better off than many, but still okay to be in a foul mood once in a while :)
doesn't getting organized make you want to sing?!!!! i love how it makes the home such a great place to live once it's all in order.
