Organized Mom on October 10th, 2008

I was out of town for two weeks. My dear husband collected the mail for me, and put it on my desk. I asked him to do that. He threw away the junk and left the rest for me to sort.

And now, my poor desk is in chaos.

I have unopened and opened mail. Books to read, products to review, things to give away. And there are some clothes thrown on top of the mix, too. (My desk is in front of our closet. Limited space.)

Sadly, I cleaned my desk the week before I left. Most of it. I had a small pile of mail to finish. But thanks to my cats, that has been scattered about.

It’s frustrating when you fall off of the wagon. I’ve been so busy with the baby that it’s easy to put off my desk. We’re down to one (albeit a longer one) nap daily. I rush to get as many things done as I can, but there’s never enough time. I just don’t seem to make it down the list to my desk. And with my son crawling – and getting faster each day – I have limited time right now.

But I am going to work on it. I feel so much more in control of things when my desk is clean. So that’s what I’m struggling with. What’s your organizational challenge right now?
