Organizing my life

Ive always been pretty good at organizing. Anytime any of the employees from my dad's store come to mine the same comment is made 90% of the time, "wow, it's so organized over here". Damn right! It makes my work day much easier.

I moved into my house in mid April and here it is mid August and for me to tell you that its organized is a complete lie. I've organized several small places including part of my closet, you better believe all of my work shirts are organized by color along with the rest of my clothing. But as far as the mail goes I've made an attempt to have it organized but it clearly is not a method that is working for us. The man cave is a complete disaster when it comes to organized along with the linen closet that I also use to store cleaning supplies.

My house is not the only thing that I cannot seem to organize properly. My life is. Every year I say I'm going to do this, this, and this and a little more of this with a whole lot of this during the summer. Negative, here it is with summer closing in and I've managed to do hardly anything I've wanted. I need a ten day week and even then I dont know if I would be able to manage the time properly and organize my days as said. By now I figured I would've already had a housewarming party. Negative again. Between mine and Kyle's schedules I can hardly fit in a shower on my weekends. I need to find some sort of balance and I just can't seem to figure it all out.

Feel free to leave tips or comments regarding how you manage time on a week to week basis. Fitting in your home maintenance, family time, work, and extracurricular activities. Right now, I'm clearly at a loss.

Burn ban & no water

I have been a busy bee here lately. Well kind of, I've actually been spending my spare time running through my reading list. I just finished Identical by Ellen Hopkins and now I've started on her Tricks. Um let's just say Identical is twisted in more ways than one! Definitely an ending I was unprepared for yet good, nonetheless.






I'm starting to get excited for Tricks. The further I read the deeper I get. When I'm through with that I'm branching from Ellen Hopkins and reading I Have Lived a Thousand Years by Livia Bitton-Jackson. A true story written by a woman who survived through the Holocaust. I've never been a huge history buff but for some reason the Holocaust highly intrigues me and I couldn't even tell you why.

I don't know about y'all but the weather here in Clarksville, TN is obnoxious. We reached 110° last week and we are in a severe drought. The whole county has been placed under a burn ban, yes right before the fourth of July we are banned from fireworks, grilling, and anything else that ignites. Topping that we're placed under a water restriction as well.



Thats a 24hr car wash down the street from my work. No one is allowed to wash cars at home you have to attend a car wash...hoping that the day you decide to wash your car they're actually open for business. In one weekend alone there were 241 calls to the police department informing of fireworks and grilling. If you're caught doing any of thes things it's a $2,500 fine and 11/29. 11months and 29days jail time. Shit is intense here y'all.

Tomorrow I'm getting off work at 12 and heading to the lake with Kyle and a friend of his from work and his wife. We're heading down to Paris Landing for the big firework show...yeah they haven't banned that yet.

Hope everyone has a Happy Fourth!
