And it does get easier. Okay, enough already !! Love you !

It takes time, time, time. Relax. It became more of a priority when I remembered that God is the God of order, and the devil is the god of disorder. Another great help ...I just looked at a squirrel in our tree, and I forgot the idea !! I've been up since 5:30, on 4 hours sleep !! 9:00 a.m. now. Snooze time, at least until 9:30. You will come up with your own little tricks and rules, relax and have fun !!

Papa God taught me to organize, and it came of necessity, you know, the MS thing and it's cohorts. Organizing never came natural to me until it became an ingrained habit; but it saves time in not having to hunt for every little item; it saves money by not having to buy the whatsit ten times over because the last nine are somewhere under those piles; it makes a safe environment because I'm not tripping over everything in sight; it makes a calm environment because I'm not stressed by lost, broken things, and our surroundings are "quiet" without the "noise" of clutter. BUT you should see my desk now !! The project is so huge I need a place to lay my "bunny" papers out where I can find them "now". Bunny papers because they multiply faster than I can file them, guess I could use a little more organizing there...considering, though, it isn't too bad, when I finish an article I can file those particular papers. It isn't too bad, considering I have a deadline on part of the project, and it is coming up in a couple of weeks. One step at a time, make it a game, and you can do it !! Oh, yeah !!
