I've been awake since before 7 a.m. It is now past 11 a.m. and I have yet to sit down to actually do any work. I've been ferrying children to school and also ferrying misplaced stuff all over my house--today was biweekly Declutter Day. Yes, it took almost two hours to move all the upstairs stuff back upstairs and the downstairs stuff back downstairs and the basement stuff back to the basement.I wonder what the mystery ladies behind The Mouthy Housewives would have to say about that? I may have to click over there and ask for their advice. If I can handle the mouthy truth.

I am relieved that other people have a problem with migrating stuff. I have no idea how stuff gets shuffled about (I just know it's not ME doing it), but I spend way too much time just moving things back to where they belong. That must be why I just don't have time to do any actual cleaning!
I just wish that I wasn't the only one who ferried things up and down on each trip without being asked! If a basket of clean laundry is at the bottom of the stairs, whoever is going upstairs next while not carrying the baby should bring it up! Duh.
In our home we have the issue of wherever we go, each child MUST take an armful of stuff to the car. So by the end of the week the car is loaded with things from the bedroom. Once a week (if that) we throw it all into a basket to be put back in it's place. It practically drives me nutty.
I would be far more productive if I didn't have to return items to their rightful places. I guess I'm an offender too though.
