Category: Tackle Tuesday

Yeah – I can’t believe it, but I tackled another project. As you might remember, Janice at 5 Minutes for Mom has challenged us last week to take on a project each week. This week’s project is one that is really close to me. Yup – always right in front of me when I sit down at my PC to check my emails or visit my favorite blogs…It is yucky and every time I say (just like the laundry thing, which btw is still caught up :smile:): “Never will I let it pileup again!!!”

Yeah – right!!! This is what I see (and now you – yeah I shop at Safeway) – my messy paperwork – not pretty :sad:.

I just can’t believe that I always let two or three weeks pile up and than have to sit for an hour to sort it out. It would be great if I could just do it on a daily basis. I sit here anyway, right?

The piled up paperwork reminds me off my ‘piled up junk’ spiritually. I don’t take care of it as I should. Sure, I read my devotions, remember a Bible verse here and there. But do I really dig deep? Not always. I know I will miss the LBY Bible study. But I think I will just dig this summer on my own. I have a couple of studies I really would like to do this summer…- Sorry, got a little side-tracked there…

I am sure you are curious what my desk looks like right now (11pm on Monday night)?

YEAH! – Done for tonight…I hope that I can keep it up this time. Believe me, there some bigger project I could tackle right now, but I am not ready for them yet. Thanks Janice for getting me started! Maybe next week I tackle one that is much bigger and much more uglier (is that a word? ‘Uglier’?).

So, what did you tackle this week? Let me know and I’ll check it out (after work). I would also like to add your link below, so please do leave a comment.

Well, Janice had a great idea and I started with my weekly nightmare. I don’t feel so bad anymore about my weekness in household chores, because I know what I am not alone (right?). You see, I do not like doing laundry very much (actually I don’t like it at all). And this past week I let it pile up again. Usually I wash laundry twice during the week (after work) and do the rest on the weekend. The washing is really not the problem – the IRONING is my weekness.

See what happens if I don’t do at least two loads during the week and iron the shirts as they are dry? I get my weekend mess. Than I end up doing laundry for an entire day and have to iron at least for couple of hours :sad:.

But if I am a good gal – my laundry room looks like this :grin:. Yes, much better.

Why I keep doing it to myself, I will never know. It is so much easier to keep up with the laundry than spending Memorial Day playing catch-up with it. Every time I spend an entire day, I tell myself: “Never again”. I do well for several weeks and than I relaps.

So, what did you tackle this week? Let me know in the comment section and I’ll add your link below. Thanks Janice for getting me motivated again to stay on-top with my laundry.
