I didn't set a goal for myself last week, but I will for this one

I didn't set a FJ1W goal for myself last week because I just couldn't think of anything good. Plus, I kind of felt like I deserved a break after the last one. Being easy going and trying to not care about the little messes and such really took a lot out of me. ☺ It was so totally against my nature.

I think I have a noble and worthwhile goal for this week. I'm going to get my bedroom really good and clean. It's cluttered right now. Not Hoarders type cluttered (which is one of the more disturbing shows I've seen in a long time), but it's still bad enough that it's beginning to make me anxious. I'm going to give myself until Friday of this week to get it done. I need a shorter window because I know I'm going to push getting it done until the last possible second. The smaller the window of opportunity, the sooner I'll get my butt into gear and get it done. I'm experiencing a weird sense of excited anticipation and dread over this one. I'm excited to see the end result, I just don't want to have to do the work to get there. I've been a little, shall we say, on the lazy side lately. This goal is going to help be get out this funk.

What's on the menu today: I can't remember and I'm feeling too lazy to go find my menu. I'm pretty sure it's a beef brisket crock pot recipe. I haven't posted it on my cooking blog. I'll try to get to that today and will maybe link to it tomorrow because I know people are just dying to to what my family is eating.

Hoarders makes me feel so much better about myself.

I am fascinated by Hoarders. I watch it and am totally grossed out and disgusted but still it fascinates me.

Popped in from Jillene's to say hi!

I think that's a great goal!

I'm on a mission too. This coming weekend I'm hoping to tackle the basement since I've finished the main floor. I'm dreading it....

I watched hoarders once and I wanted to jump in the TV and smack the lady and then send her out of the house and throw all of the stuff away. It was so gross. I love your goal and I think I am going to go through and do that same thing to the boxes in my "office".

My room had a mountain of clean laundry waiting for me... it wasn't til my kids were wondering what happened to all their clothes that i finally had to dig in and get it done... Good Luck and can't wait to hear about the end result... =D

When I get stressed I clean and I mean deep clean so basically I clean all the time with teenagers around. Haha!
