Just dropping by to say "Hi"

That's about all I ever have time for these days. "Just a minute" seems to be my favorite phrase, since it's all that comes out of my mouth.

Just ask the kiddos. Even they're getting tired of waiting for me to finish what I'm doing (which is usually something for them in one way or another) in order for them to drop yet another request. For me to DO something else for them.

It would be a lot easier if I could just get organized.

I've been saying that for many years, but now I mean business. It seems that homeschooling has turned this moderately disorganized but comfy home into UTTER CHAOS & CLUTTER.

Not that I have never seen worse. My college dorm may have been worse ... yeah, probably was. But there was just me and my mess to contend with. Right now we have the combined messes of a growing family, and two of them are learning their slovenly ways from the wrong parent.

Dad tries to step in and make things right, but he's in a losing battle. It's up to me, since I am officially the Home Administrator and Queen in Residence, to shape things up.

I may be gone for long periods of time, since blogging must drop ever lower on my list of priorities. But when I'm back, it'll be better than ever. Or not, but at least I'm giving it my best shot.

Wish me luck.
