February Low

I have to admit that I am feeling a little like giving up.  Nothing specific has happened and I am actually following the schedule pretty well.  I just thought that once I was organized that the house would look different.

But our dinning room table still has arts and crafts all over it.  I know it is Valentine's Day tomorrow but it just seems like there are always crafts or clutter or papers on the table.  The picture below is our couch in the toy room.  The cushions are pulled off, the "baby beds" are set up on the couch and of course there is paper everywhere so that Sadie can make all of her 'notes' and 'pictures'. 

I realize that I will probably look back on times like this and wish that somebody was looking after their 'babies' or a time when the kids were innocently creating masterpieces on the dinning room table.  Right now though it just seems like all this organizing is at a plateau.  People get that when they start to lose weight, they start out just dropping pounds off and then plateau and can't seem to get that last 10 pounds off.  I think I am just plateauing (is that a word?).   I am sure in a little bit I will be back on track and organizing some more so stay with me.

In a few months the farm and garden will be back in full swing and I'll have so much to do I won't know where to begin.  For now I'll try and enjoy my plateau that I am on and push through to the other side!
