Why I accomplish nothing during the day. Imagine this, with about two minutes between each line, some whiny, some in tears. “Mom! *I* wanted to go to the bus with Justin!!! WHY DIDN’T YOU TAKE ME? I SAID FOR YOU TO!” “I want breakfast.” “Penny’s going downstairs.” “Mom! This is not the kind of oatme ...

I think neat freak is a quality best exhibited in a single person. It doesn't matter, then, if you like to have your bookshelves alphabetical by author within genre or that every utility company sending you bills has their own folder within your filing system.

Last week was a good week. I say that because it's rare that I can. In most weeks, there's at least one day that goes wrong—a day when I am super tired or the girls are super whiny or I don't accomplish as much of my to-do list as I want to.

One Wednesday night a couple weeks ago, I was trying not to fall apart while I made supper and counting down the hours until I could go rock climbing with my cousins.

This is a picture of my room, taken sometime between graduating from university and moving into my own apartment (back when I still had a film camera and wanted to use up the last of the roll so I could get it developed): Yes, it always looked that neat. I had a place for everything and everything i ...
