Wow... as in World of Warcraft?

     So here is a little secret of mine... I play World of Warcraft, kind of. I've been playing on and off for about five years now, and I'm still such a noob XD. Anyways you're probably wondering what that has to do with a blog that is supposed to be about cleaning, organizing, and arts-n-crafts. Don't worry I'm not going to start creating cheesy themed art-n-craft items to decorate your house with. I did however mention the major issue that I seem to be having. Which is the fact that I'm supposed to be doing something with this blog, but I'm not really doing anything. I have so many things that I want to do and share, but I seem to be limiting myself. I also tend to make things more complicated than they need to be. When I first created this blog my goal was to use it to show not only the transformation of my room (and other personal spaces), but to show off my own personal transformations as well. A bit attention seeking, yes, I know. I was hoping that by doing a blog that anyone could read, that it would act as an incentive to actually work on my bad habits. It has actually helped a bit, but I've also hit a bit of a dead end.
      You see I'm constantly changing my mind on things, my biggest flaws are my indecisiveness and lack of focus. This is extremely noticeable in the way I play Wow. I'm an alt-a-holic, I'm constantly creating and deleting alts for one reason or another. I am always coming up with little stories for each as well as taking tons of screen shots, but I don't do anything with any of it. It is all becoming clutter on my computer, in my head, and of my time. I need to do something with it all, and I was thinking that this may just be the spot to put some of it. I'd put it all on another blog, but I don't think that would be a good idea at the moment. I need to focus on a lot of things at once right now, and adding another blog on top of it would just cause more problems than it would solve.

Anyways happy, belated, Thanksgiving

Had to Share

     Here is a quick link I found on Organizing, that I just had to share. It has some creative "declutter" ideas.

Hold Up

     So I've been working on my room for quite some time now, and although I have gotten a lot done there is still much more to do. I know I haven't posted much on here, but truth be told there hasn't been as much to talk about as I would have liked (Mostly I've been doing a lot of boring things like reorganizing papers and such). There are a few projects that I am working on, and some old one's I'll try to cover soon.

     There is one bit of advice I will give right now though for organizing papers. There are many different ways to Organize paperwork; file cabinets, binders, crates, bins, ect. As long as you know where those important papers are, and can easily access them is what counts. Experiment with different methods to find one that works for you. Try to keep the things that go together, close together (ie: School Records and Transcripts, or Bank Records and Budget info/ Pay stubs). Once you start don't allow yourself to stop, for any reason.

     I think that I might have more to say on the subject of organization, but not right now. I need to get to work on some of my projects that I mentioned, and hope it doesn't take another month for me to post.
