ON VACATION

I haven't posted in a while because I'm on vacation HERE! >>>>>>>>


 I know I'm not supposed to say on the internet that I'm on vacation because who knows who might come and burglarize  our home! No worries though! We have someone (   A VERY BIG PERSON ) staying at our house while we're gone and a very high tech custom ALARM system! Oh! Plus we don't have any valuables. No... really! So that should take care of THAT concern! 

Anyway, I am going to write  my next post about how to organize and  PLAN A CAR TRIP WITH KIDS as we are traveling with our adult children and grandkids! I like to organize the trip for the grandkids by planning car activities. It keeps them entertained while making the time go faster! So keep posted whether you're a Mom or Grandma...Everyone needs to know how  to organize and plan a FUN CAR TRIP WITH KIDS!

"Your home is a garbage processing center where new things are purchased and slowly demoted through various stages of 'trashification' until you're done."     Jerry Seinfeld Doesn't this "feel" great?                                                                                                         I had to laugh at Jerry Seinfeld's description of what happens to our "stuff". But when I thought about it,  that's kind of what happens to things in OUR home.  After  a while things get "old" and they move into the "trash" category. So we have a garage sale...  to get rid of the stuff that has gone through the end stage of "trashification". Then after we get rid of our "trash", we g...

10 BENEFITS OF ORGANIZING

Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up.  A.A. Milne Flowers from Pinterest   There are a lot of organizing blogs and web sites out there but I decided to start this one to help me get MYSELF back on the organizing track as well as share some things that have helped me be more organized over the years. I've kind of yo-yo'd back and forth like a diet with being organized. I was the MOST organized when my kids were growing up because I felt I HAD to be to maintain my sanity with all the busyness of an active household!  But if I go back even further I was a very orderly little girl. My room was ALWAYS neat and organized. I made my bed before I  even got out of it! I had a happy, secure childhood and I think that my desire to keep things in my personal little world happy and ordered reflected that.  My disorganized years were:  when the kids had moved out and I was working full time ( more abou...

PLANNING FOR SUMMER FUN

Granddaughters arriving for Gramma Camp. Teaching grandson to play golf. Just as important as organizing the spaces of your home, is planning fun events in your life. This IS, afterall, a blog about "A Well Ordered LIFE" which includes ordering and planning the FUN!  I find that if I don't plan things, they won't "just happen". For example, at the end of one summer I found myself thinking, " We never went on an old fashioned picnic!" The grandkids were busy with Mission Trips, Vacation Bible School, camping out, swimming lessons etc. The guys golfed on their days off, vacations were taken, and EVERY YEAR I think about going on a simple  picnic, but one year didn't actually PLAN one! What's a summer without an old fashioned family picnic? Oh sure, we had LOTS of family gatherings where we grilled out and ate together. But a picnic where we'd go to a favorite spot... to eat outside... on a picnic table...we did not do. I simply fo...
