what eludes me

I want to be organized. I want everything in its place and for my house to be super clean. I mean, no dust on the washing machine, tv screen without crap on it, under the sinks tidy, closets organized, shiny sink and tub clean. Any of you who know me know that my house is the exact opposite of that dream. It is a cluttered crazy mess with random things in random places being used for random weapons or art supplies by my children. I cleaned out the boys' dresser today. All the too small clothes are ready to go. Then I moved on to the subbasement and the toys. I have dreams for my subbasement, I can see what an awesome playroom it could be. If only I had more time. Forrest just blogged about being busy and if we really are or aren't busy. I don't feel like I get much acomplished in a day, but I never stop. I think it's bad time management. Maybe I have ADD. I don't know what my problem is. Somedays I smile and embrace the chaos of my life, other days I wish that I was Samantha on Bewitched (old series, haven't seen the new movie) and that I could twinkle my nose and my home would be perfect, and the kids could trash it again and I wouldn't even have to care. I tried the nose twinkle again today, didn't work. So I guess I better go fold some laundry!
