Chaotic Mess

My house has been really cluttered and awful lately. I feel like I can’t get on top of it. Once I get it all picked up it just gets incredibly messy again. I know my busy-ness doesn’t help. I hate that when my house is like this, it causes me to have this general sense of anxiety. With 3 little ones who are very active it is only normal that my house would be this way… so I wish I could just accept it as fact and not let it stress me out so much. I’m sure it doesn’t help that I’m in the process of switching my meds. That has to make me more vulnerable to anxiety considering without them I’m a panicky mess.
On a side note- You know you are in trouble when you wear a top you hate because it is clean and it fits. Is that the definition of being that women that “lets it go”? Gosh- I hope not. It is a reality check though. I have to get back to fitting in my cute clothes. I haven’t stopped being fashion conscious, I’m just not near as fashion concerned… Which professionally just won’t work for me. So here is to trying harder! The HCG diet starts in about a week… so that should help. Cute jeans, please fit again.

No, the definition of being a woman that lets herself go is one who doesn’t care whether it’s clean, whether it fits or whether she’s worn it for the last three days. I think you’re safe.

I totally feel you on this!
Sometimes I wonder why I bother to clean the house because as soon as I do one of the kids comes through and all my hard work is finished in under a minute! Ha! Well that’s just our season of life right now, you know?
I recently read in Real Simple that you should pick out a “uniform” of sorts so that you can look cute and still be comfortable. Personally I can’t wait for fall so I can wear my cute little velour pants and jackets (with a “The Bomb Mom” t-shirt, of course) They come in all colors and are very forgiving and comfortable. I never have time to think about what I wear so this sounds like a plan for me. My kids always look way cuter than I do - they are so much easier to dress! Ha!
I hear you on the meds. I went to take mine last night before bed and panicked becaused I was out and forgot to refill the RX! Yikes! That’s first on my list today!
Sorry for the long comment, but I’m SOOO glad you’re still blogging here!

So glad you are back, and writing again. And BTW, I’m sure anything that has the privilege of being in your closet is darling!
