    Keep it simple! Pretty much everything could use some uncomplicating. However, our piles (and piles and piles) of paper could use some organizing!

    Keep It Simple! My brain needs organizing. I recently became a stay at home mom and I can’t keep on top of anything. The house is always a mess, we still have boxes to unpack from our move in November and I can’t create and stick to a routine. Help!

    While in Portland be sure to visit our exciting and innovative food charts, they are in food pods. Another favorite stop for a quick, cheap bite to eat is the Waffle Window. I can’t resist a waffle with peppered bacon, brie and fresh peach jam. You will love Portland, the Children’s Museum is another good hang out place if Clara is coming. Lots to do!

    My parents’ house. I’m visiting for a week to start organizing and purging for them. After raising 5 awesome kids (love my siblings!), it’s the least I can do for them, right? Sometimes parents’ houses become free storage rooms.

    My ENTIRE life could use some work in the simplification department. But my number one, I suppose, is kid clutter. I have three daughters in preschool and a pile of “stuff” so high and deep and complicated that my office looks like a tornado of came through and left an entire Hobby Lobby in its wake.

    I have two areas that come to mind that need “un-complicating” — my office/craft area/guest room/catch-all room and being able to make goals that are possible so that I follow through with them to the end.
