School and organization

Today I started my new class online! I almost feel like I'm drowning in stress just talking about it. I am presently trying to achieve my BA in science majoring in criminal justice. With one class under my belt today and many many last year I feel like I'm on my way.
   Today I am motivated to clean my lower level of my house and try will finish one organization project. Since I am always sooo busy I will finish here and post many pics when I am finished.

Hiatus but Im back

 Its been so long since I have posted much about anything let alone about organization. I was putting my efforts into cleaning and cooking and taking care of my family. I am so excited to start my journey again with blogging and to touch bases with so many people in this great world we live in. I personally wouldnt know what to do without reading some of my favorite blogs. Today is a milestone and a new chapter in my life and I am thrilled to share it.

                                             Have a joyful day
