Domino Home Organization

.

 

In an effort to clear shelves for our school books, I decided to move my children's picture book collection out to the hut...and, surprisingly, almost all of them fit into this little organizer thing that I found at the hardware store!

Cute, huh?  I love those roomy little boxes it has too.  I can throw all sorts of art supplies and stuff in them!  Best of all, it left me with this back in the house....

That's right!  A rare commodity - EMPTY BOOKSHELVES!!  Now you may think (as my dh would) that I will fill these two shelves and that will be the end of the bookcase story.  Au-contrare, I now must  reorganize the shelves by the school table to have this years books handy as we're schooling...then the books removed from there will inevitably be too many to fit where they should go...causing all of those books to have to find a bigger shelf...which misplaces the books that used to live there....which means they need a new home....

 

Yes...the infamous DOMINO EFFECT!

 

By the time I'm done, this little bookshelf will have lead to our entire library of books being re-arranged, the dvd cabinet cleaned up, the linen closet organized, my bedroom closet tidied and the children's rooms gone through.  Don't you just love home-management?  (Actually, I really do!)

 

Until later....

just how the domino effect works. Since I cleared the homeschool shelf to list those items we will no longer need for homeschool, the children all decided to clean off their bookshelves in their rooms and bring them all out to the homeschool shelf which caused me to have to go through it again and then I have to take all the teachers books and such and move them into the office so that I can keep up with the planning of lessons and all and well, you get the picture.

Go girl,,, play those domino's!

What is the hut? I'm guessing it is a different area, but not in the house?

Welcome to my lazy little place on the web. A place to slow down and take an occasional break from the everyday routine.

About Us...


Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket My sweet hubbie took the quirky little picture you see above. Contrary to what it may seem to indicate, the kids and I are not usually found sitting around together looking like sardines packed in mustard sauce. We were actually loaded up in our little space capsule at the St. Louis Arch - ready to ride to the top! Now THAT was a cool field trip!! When we're not on field trips, you'll find us living our dream on a lovely little lake in the Lake Region of N. Central Florida - with lots of cows, horses, raccoons, opossums and gators for neighbors (...there are a few humans as neighbors too!). We're in our 14th year of homeschooling, and even though all of our homeschooling children are now high schoolers, we still enjoy the eclectic, hands-on, literature based learning style that we always have. The Lord has blessed us in so many ways, and to Him, alone, we give all the praise and glory! Soli Deo Gloria!!

believe in His Son and you’ll experience one!

and love smiles knowingly

at the whole foolishness of logic.

Creativity is allowing yourself

to make mistakes.

Art is knowing which ones to keep.

“A friend is someone who knows the song

in your heart and can sing it back to you

when you have forgotten the words.”

We are...

...a Christian family desiring to raise our

children with the primary focus on

Training their Hearts!

III John 1:4

"I have no greater joy, than to hear my

children walk in truth."

Proverbs 22:6

"Train up the child in the way he should

go, and when he is old, he will not depart

from it"

Deuteronomy 5:29

"Oh that their hearts would be inclined

to fear me and keep all my commands always,

so that it might go well with them and their

children forever!"

Train up a child in the way he should go

— but be sure you go that way yourself.

The character of our children tomorrow

depends on what we put into their hearts today.
