So every year after my birthday if I’m disappointed, I get to go buy myself presents and not feel guilty.

I know in the back of my mind that it’s not working.And I know it’s a waste of my time..

The thing is, there are plenty of “real” projects I could be working on.Ones that aren’t just a temporary solution..So that’s what I’ve promised myself to make sure I’m working on first.

Those things that won’t (probably) lead to my eventual insanity.And won’t take away from our roof fund until we know how much that’s actually going to cost..

Pulling up the peel and stick tile from the front hall.. And that yard.

So for now, that corner of Kennedy’s room is at least tidy and I’m about to really roll up my sleeves.I found these great pillowcases at the dollar store the other day.The fact that it’s cute will just make me feel super organized and on top of things even if the house is falling apart around me a little.

(That binder is from the Martha Stewart Line available at Staples).I really loved how the list turned out, so I thought it might be fun to share it with you.

Of course, my own basic routines probably won’t make sense in your house, but I thought it might be fun for you to be able to look it over and get ideas for what kinds of things to add to your own list.Or if you just want to snoop.
