Today...

Today is an opportunity... to accomplish something, to start something, to finish something...just one thing.
Don't be overwhelmed by all the things that you see that need doing. Pick just one thing, and do it...today.

If you are looking around at your home, and thinking that you really need to get started on at least one organizing project... start one today.

If you have items to go to Goodwill or another charity...take them today.

If you need to get an item appraised for sale...make that call today.

If your kids' bedrooms are a jumble of toys and books and you have been telling them that "we need to work together to get this picked up"...give them a hug and teach them a few clean-up tips, today.

If you have books to return to the library or other items that need be returned to family or friends...return them today.

Tonight you can sit down with your family, or just by yourself, and look back at the day with the satisfaction of having finished something that has been nagging at you. That's a great way to go into tomorrow...

Jennifer,
The thought of 'hugging the children' and gently suggesting that they clean their room - touched my heart so deeply.

I love the feel of home and I love the business of making my home and homeschool work as smoothly and "Grace"fully as possible. I want to help preserve the art of Domesticity, with the added Blessing of Home Education.
This is the purpose of this blog. To pass along some of the things I have learned, and am learning, about organizing, about cooking, about homeschooling, about time management and other tidbits.
