Huh. *backs away from crazy lady* you know? But, I do the shiny sink think and the swish and swipe and I do the 15 minute declutter thing... and I have a control journal that is a work in process. It's actually kinda fun and definitely makes you feel better about yourself if you aren't one of those "born organized" people. Although... given your containers of wrapping paper that sound all deliciously organized, maybe you are a born organized person. :) FlyLady does look intimidating and I admit, I don’t stick to all of it.

That would be awesome. It sounds so Stepford Wife-y, I swear, but I stuck my toe in and then just had to keep going. ;)

However, I have about 6 different toy catalogs on my desk as I type this. I also have about 3 things bought. I love shopping for the perfect gift and then wrapping it up. I have about 3 huge containers full of wrapping paper, ribbons, bows, and labels. I've been peeking at The Fly Lady site. She kinda scares me. Maybe I'll be brave and start her after the holidays. We'll see. .-= Becky´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.girlscoutdropout.org/?p=156" rel="nofollow">Game. Set. Match.</a> =-. Shame on you for making me think about Christmas.

However, I am PaperBackSwap-ing, and I'm enjoying it greatly. My bookshelves are no longer bowing in the center, books are not falling off at random times to clatter loudly on the floor, and I can actually find a book when I'm looking for it! I'm still holding out for the handmade gifts this year. I have a bookcover for my sister, and some wash clothes I need to finish knitting up. I have (I think) 7 more people left to do gifts for... I think I'll have to break and actually buy something. .-= Marissa´s last blog ..<a href="http://marissainsavannah.marissaturner.com/?p=465" rel="nofollow">Sometimes</a> =-.
