New Website

…

As you’ll notice when you pull up my website, it has had a complete overhaul! It is more clean-lined and… light, springy, airy? It took quite a bit of customizing, but I’m happy with the end result.

While re-doing the website, I overhauled the pages. Some had unnecessary links, others didn’t have links at all when they should. It’s much more organized.

I guess that’s my theme for today: organization. …if that can be a theme.

I started my day by re-arranging two rooms in my house. Then, I cleaned out and organized my office, which is far more functional and… homey now. Then, I decided to do the doozy, the mack-daddy: the garage. Does anyone else have a room, closet, drawer that everything just ends up in unintentionally? The garage was my dump… err… beast? I finally went through all of the boxes, all of the bins, organizing everything, down to the papers. I assembled shelves, re-packed items into new, unbroken bins. I finally put all the tools in one place… It’s done! It’s finally done! I can actually open my garage door without shame now… well, almost. The trash guys must have been cursing me for filth today. I had over twenty-five boxes filled with trash and… well, truthfully, crap… outside beside the overflowing trash can. And I still have more, but have to wait for the large trash day on Wednesday.

It’s crazy because I’m generally a neat person. I have to have a clean work space or I can’t concentrate. But, all too often I’m guilty of: as long as it looks clean, I can put it off. Today was the exhausting launch pad for more clean outs. Next? My closet. I still have my maternity clothes! (My youngest is almost 22 months…) So, sometime this week, I plan to go through the rest of my house and organize every cupboard and drawer and do a thorough spring cleaning, something that, before this year, I never did.

Don’t worry. Though I’m tired and sore, I’m still working… as you can see with the website. I’ll be getting dinner together shortly, and then I’ll be back at my computer writing into the night, sick kids and all. Thank God for make-up. I have an 8am meeting with my daughter’s teacher tomorrow. I know I’d be looking quite haggard without it…

Happy spring (cleaning)! …I know spring isn’t until the 20th, but I live in Florida. It already feels like spring, and we’re bordering on summer. (My least favorite season…)

Have a great day!
