Organizing 101/Jan- Family Room

[AlexWyattMommy]

I still need to clean the fish tank, but I'm doing pretty good with everything else.
Tomorrow
Make sure I get myself to school on time tomorrow to open the school store.
I need to finish glueing together the "house party" squares & toppers and I'm done with that.
Clean the downstairs(finished basement) of toys-on-floor-syndrome. And re-arrange that furniture so 9 kids can all see the TV.
More laundry. Seriously, does this stuff mate or somthing?
Need to strip the beds this day.
Clean off the front porch so it looks reasonably presentable. I guess I should remove the Halloween stakes from the front garden too.

And if the toys don't win the battle, I'll try to work on some of my swaps.

So far the mission organization of DD's closet went smoothly.. I had to take a break and shake my head because I wondered why she always complained of having now under garmets and socks.. Well, hello! They are in every drawer but the one they should be in!!
I forsee a "mommy lecture" coming forth tonight!

Ok! Last night after work I went to the gym and worked out for an hour and then practiced raquetball for 30 minutes. By the time I got home it was 745 and I was kinda tired, mom called and was in a weirdly chatty mood!! So I had to chat with her about absolutly nothing!!!! Then boyfriend called and I chatted with him for 15 minutes before he walked into work then I was really tired, so much for changing the sheets on the bed!!! I kinda just slept on the dirty sheets! Oh well... Tonight!!!! I go home early and here are my goals:

Shopping for needed groceries on the way home
Take the ornaments off the Christmas tree (YES... they are still up!!!! )
Make dinner for me and boyfriend!
Change sheets on bed!!!! (They really need it! Boyfriend can help!!!)
Clean kitchen from dinner stuff
Laundry (again)
Work on Swap stuff (If there is time)

Do you think I can do it all????? Hummmmm.... Not sure!!!! I sure will try though!!!!

OKay speaking of organization, that was one of my goals for the beginning of the year too. I have 10 6 gallons containers to place shoes that no longer have boxes with photographs inside. Started scrapbook organizing and boy do I need it (not that I hjave done anywork since the summer but....)

So here is where I need help. Does anyone have one of those carts that are shevles for paper and are enclosed in the case but when open the shelves "stand up." I saw one for clearance for 89.00 but want to make sure that It would really help and be used before I dish that kind of dough. Any thoughts?

Thank you!

I've not seen one. It does sound interesting. Does the cart roll when not in use? Is it small enough to be hidden in a closet?
