This is What Happens When a Brain is in Overdrive


So there isn’t much on my mind today, except the rising cost of groceries, the Enterovirus scare, Ebola, and my complete and total lack of organization. That’s quite a list right?!

It’s like I can’t shut off my brain and just take a moment to relax - when one of my children so much as sneezes, I have to press down the urge to grab a thermometer and take them to the nearest emergency room. I come home from work exhausted and can’t find the motivation to deal with the load of laundry staring back at me, I put my keys down and then remember I need to get something from the car only to realize I have NO IDEA where I set the keys down less than five minutes before, and has anybody seen the price of milk lately?!  Good God it’s enough to make anybody go slap batty!

Hopefully I can get motivated this week and get back on the organizational bandwagon - with a full schedule of work, church, kids, hubby, etc. I had better get it together soon, or I may pick up the wrong kid for the wrong appointment on the wrong day. And since no one can tell me how to make sure my kids don’t get sick with some mystery virus and there aren’t lots of coupons out there to off set the price of milk, I figure, out of all of the stuff taking up space in my brain, getting organized might be the only thing I can control at the moment. Hopefully it will bring me a bit more calm and balance. Anybody got any good ideas on how to keep track of all there is to do, drop me a line - I am open to suggestions. And if you happen to find a coupon for a gallon of milk (heck, even a coupon for half gallon), I’ll take that too!

P.S. Working on a new idea I want to share with everyone early next week. I hope you’ll like it!
