Where in the World Do I Start?

June 16, 2008 by Laura 6 Comments

Here’s a quick tip for any of you who have ever had so many things going on at one time that you thought your head would pop off. And then you look around at your house and see messes in every room and feel complete frustration thinking that you’ll never get it all under control…and you don’t even know where to start if you could ever start…

I was sorta feeling this way today. (sorta?)

But as soon as I had a free minute…I went and cleaned my kitchen. 

In my opinion…it’s the best place to start. When my kitchen is a wreck…I feel completely like a wreck. If the kitchen is clean…everything overall feels so much better.

I don’t have time to get to the rest of the house right now…but I started with the kitchen. And I feel like I’m regaining my focus…and I feel much calmer now. 

You’ve gotta love a clean kitchen! :)

    I feel the same way about a clean kitchen. It just makes my brain feel a little less fuzzy since I spend a lot of time in there.

    I feel the same way!
    I LIVE in my kitchen! And I don’t want my room a wreck, especially my work station!
    lol
    Sometime, when you get time, I wanna know how you balance cooking and homeschool! :-)

    The kitchen is my first go-to for cleaning, too! Maybe it is because the kitchen is the heart of the home and where we all spend much of our time?

    They say the kitchen is the heart of the home.

    Laura, this is so true. I have not had my own kitchen for 2 years (we’re living with someone) and it has totally affected me in the realms of even my joy of being in the kitchen. I cannot wait to have my own space back. Even if it is not 100% complete. It will be “MY” space.
