That is the question that I keep asking myself. I have become not only okay with ignoring a mess during the day, but actually able to sit down and relax while it is still there. I tell you something is seriously wrong here. This is not me. I like order. Lots of nice, neat, organized, businesslike order. Yet, as I sit here thinking about how tired I am I realize that, for I don't know how long, my desk is once again in complete chaos. Not only am I sitting here not caring about it, I am actually not interested in fixing it.
Big boy legos, little boy legos, a wooden puzzle, an alphabet puzzle, will this ever end?
Is it part of being a mother that expects her children to completely destroy everything? Even her love of order?
My desk is forever discombobulated as of late and I don't have the energy to even have an emotion concerning the absolute wreck of a desk. Given, I don't sit here often, but still. I am using my schooling clipboard as a coaster for crying out loud!!!
At my desk I have to my left: a line of books that we use for school; an open folder for the church finances which have needed to be organized for ,oh, ever; a large open crayon box (tote), a stack of adventures in odyssey that need to be moved to my computer (but first I need to get some free space on the hard drive, hence their new home of waiting in line); a ball of twine, the school clipboard with my coffee cup staining it; and Josiah's flashing ipod. To my right: a pile of cables (from Siah trying to find his ipod cable), stacks of correspondence, notes about everything from design ideas for the house to deed info and finance account stats; bank statements for the church and us; a Beth Moore dvd study set; a broken watch; and finally, receipts from my recent grocery and fuel purchases. Utter chaos, and I was up so late last night that I think that I am going to ignore this and go sit with my boys.
This is a weird pic of my desk because it is a mirror imagine. Talk about being tired, I keep staring at this wondering how in the world...
If you think that your desk and house are in bad shape, please look at mine and feel better.

My advice - get to a doctor quick, before it's too late!! Maybe there's a cure for what ails you. Whatever you do, don't give up or you'll never dig your way out!
Seriously, dude, this is important.
