Surfin’ the Net: 10/10

I’m not sure what season we’re currently in. One minute we’re enjoying the brisk days of fall. The next, it’s as cold as the dead of winter. And then, out of nowhere, it’s hot and humid, and the hornets and ladybugs are attacking our home and holding us hostage inside. It looks like today, however, is the start of another string of the chilly days of fall, and I couldn’t be happier!

Hi. My name is Mandi and I’m an organizing junkie. I’m also a wife, and Momma to four little girls (5, 3.5, 2 and a new baby!). I've worked at home since our oldest was a baby, and like a lot of other moms, my life is a constant balancing act of caring for my family and my home, meeting my obligations and finding time for hobbies in there somewhere. Oh, yeah, in the interest of full disclosure, I’m somewhat of a kitchen dunce and I only like to pretend that I’m crafty. Read more here!

Hey Mandi, thanks for the link! I’m like you, I enjoy those chilly days of fall too, though I’ve never been held hostage by ladybugs.

Mandi, thanks for the link! I liked the Unclutter’s story about getting more sleep – too bad I’m posting this at 11:30pm! Maybe tomorrow night!
