Merry-go-round and round

I successfully cleaned 80% of my basement today. It was the big thing I wanted to get done when the kids started school. The other 20% is actually not my stuff so I am leaving it to them.
Now as i sit here sort of looking through my blog and laughing. See I don't tag my posts so I can't say search for a topic and see all the posts about say "Merry-go-rounds" but I am sure there are many.
I ran into a blog post that I wrote in 2008 and it was about wanting to get off this crazy Merry-go-round that is my life. I rattled on and on about the 1,000 things I did in a week and how overwhelmed I was and how I couldn't take one more thing. Imagine I have been blabbing about it for at least 3 years without taking any action. God, I hate when people do that and I have been doing it.
You know what? I am so over that.
I will give you the fact that the girls are now both signed up for soccer and dance class and I am still not sure how I am going to get it all done but you know what? It will get done. 1 week at a time I will figure it out.
The basement was the 1st step in my master plan to get off this Merry-go-round and it feels good. It is a small step but it is a forward step and I can't wait.
