Be wise and ORGANIZE

I'm drowning...

I don't know about you Internet but for some reason this Fall I feel like I'm drowning in my own house (throw me a rope and a coffee STAT!).

Could it be that a 1250 square foot home with SIX growing people is too small?

Perhaps.

When we bought out 1940's bungalow six years ago I was BEYOND thrilled.  
We had three small babies and one in the oven, a house with tons of potential and half an acre of land to call our own (complete with lilac trees).

I still like it...but I admit I don't LOVE it.

I have three girls...and one bathroom.  
Two of our lovelies share a room and the other two bedrooms are 8X9....
just large enough for one dresser and a bed (and yet they still always feel messy).  
My kitchen is not large enough for all of our dishes 
(and so things still live in boxes in our garage).  


I salivate over people who have pantries 
(you have NO idea how hard it is not to have one when you have a large family).

I don't like to whine...
 (ok maybe I do like to whine just not in public)


 but.I.need.a.change.

So I either step up to the challenge and make these changes
or wallow in self pity and stare at magazines
(which breed in me a spirit of discontentment).

Now that winter is essentially upon us here in the Northwest, 
my goal is to organize different areas of my home.   
I will share my progress with you along the way 
and maybe some of my vintage hoarding will also end up for sale on here as well.  


I'm all about sharing the hoard.

If you need inspiration dear Internet....then get thee to a computer and join Pinterest!

Amazing ideas and ways to find inspiration.  
If you follow the link from my blog you can see my Pinterest boards.  
One is entirely devoted to fabulous reorganization ideas.

So put on some "pumping" music and play it loud... grab your garbage can and your gloves...get ready to dive into the thick of it...and say "Au Revoir"  to not being able to find your keys!!
