29 Day Organizing Challenge - Can I do it again?



Well, the start of a new year always brings a desire to get this place in tip-top shape! However, I've really been having a hard time getting into any kind of routine and the piles have grown into mountains!
Laura at I'm an Organizing Junkie is doing another organizing challenge this year & I'm going to participate again! This time I'll be concentrating on the junktoy room. I could have chosen the laundry room (yikes!) or the attic again (the garage sale dumping grounds) but I have some specific reasons for picking the toy room:

1. It's a mess. Duh.
2. It's so nice to send the kids up there to play the Wii when they have some energy to burn off. But they can hardly do that with the room in it's current condition.

and the most important reason...

3. My children see my struggle to stay organized and are adopting those bad habits. Peter Pan has an especially hard time remembering his homework. It's another mother guilt that I burden myself with, so maybe with some encouragement (Laura's challenge!) I can get started on the right path. I don't want my kids to be perfect, but they've got to at least learn how to function properly in life!

On to some pictures. Oh boy...
