The Organizing Fairy
July 21, 2010 by Sandy
Excuses don’t get the work done but the Organizing Fairy can right?
(You can’t see a fairy’s face you know….they won’t come to visit if you see their face….don’t you know anything? Duh? lol)
I know..I know…we all wish we had one (I do too some days….although I would much rather have a cooking & cleaning fairy). But unless we do have an organizing fairy…guess what? The job still needs to get done. Unless you always want to be living in a messy zone. So even though we can have a zillion excuses….we still need to find a way to get the job done.
I know…that is the yucky part right? So the question now is..how?
The first Step is schedule the time to do it. Get out that calendar.
I know it would be wonderful if we could add 4 hours to each day in order to get more done….but unfortunately life doesn’t work that way.
Block out a couple hours in your schedule a few times a week. If there is a way you can devote several hours to get started…that would be wonderful, but if not – do what you can.
Maybe turn off the reality show (DVR it!) and use that time if you work during the day.
It might have to be after the kids are in bed if you can’t get anything accomplished while they are up.
It might be that you need to bring in a babysitter for a few hours or have in in-law watch them.
It is all about priorities. If this is a priority to get done in your life, then you need to put it on as a priority in order to get it done.























You make it sound so easy!!! The problem is that it is soooo boring. But I am determined to get my garage and storage shed cleaned out this summer! :)
I know…but once you start getting into it…it will become a mission. That is why I say….turn on the music and get in a “go get ‘em” kind of attitude.
