Dealing with clutter can open up not only the physical space, but also emotional, psychological and spiritual spaces!~Peter Walsh
Now I’m understanding this a bit better.So I’m not lossing my mind after all.
Today has been one of the days that (can I just start over) I’ve not figured out.
My Daughter and I had a day.
This Clutter Queen is totally feeling the emotional side of things today.NOT CYCLE related!~
Up, down, backwards, forwards, good, bad & ugly, sweet, loving then angry and hideous. Then all of it all over again. WHAT?!?!?! I swear I think Men have 1/5 of the different emotions that women have.
My husband agreed that at least he has 1/5th of what I have.
Not much happened today really. Or so I thought.
But then reading the quote from Peter Walsh – well my eyes opened.
Breakfast and Groceries were accomplished. Believe it – $330 to fill a small cupboard and half a fridge. Ouch!
My Daughter played while I shopped and we were both happy. Thank YOU CO-OP!
She is Thrilled to be a KIDS CLUB MEMBER.
Home to put stuff away. Little to no co-operation there. What can I expect from almost 4? Why did I expect more?
I expected her to find a place for the foods she likes in a cupboard that was already full. Poor Girl!
Then I’m the best Mom in the world for putting on her new Tattoo – again Thank YOU CO-OP!
I wanted the Tattoo – Big heart with kids playing in it – I AM SPECIAL!
Snacks, TreehouseTV, Crafts and me on the computer catching up on emails. Whew!
I think I deleted about 500 emails in the last 2 days. Move from one account to another.
I was running out of space in my email account. So at first it was the MOVE IT FROM HERE TO THERE.
OKAY NOW I HAVE 3 OF THE SAME EMAIL. THE ORIGINAL, THE ONE IN MY SENT FILE, AND THE ONE IN THE NEW LOCATION. Created a bigger problem! It did get better. I made folders. Now there are rooms, many rooms.
This is the beginning of organization, RIGHT?! You might laugh, I actually thought of upgrading my email account
to accommodate the clutter -instead of dealing with it. OH, OH, OH – sounds like moving from a smaller house to a bigger house. HMMMMMM. YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well there it is. I’m getting rid of more cluttering. If it is in one place it is everywhere!!!
I actually did get to the point of creating an Urgent deal with now file – filled and emptied it.
I’m going to try the “DEALING WITH AN EMAIL ONCE” method – that’s tomorrow.
There is more on the emotional side – I leave saying this,
I wrote myself a note – something I saw in an email,
“A LOVING ATMOSPHERE IN YOUR HOME IS THE FOUNDATION FOR YOUR LIFE”.
Sounds Pretty Good!
