Accountability

So this is exactly why I needed to let people know that I had a blog.  I went out of town last weekend (Thursday- Sunday) for a retreat for Thirty-One.  My husband is AMAZING and had the girls the entire time so that I could go.  While I was gone he got into a car accident on his way t work and totaled our van, which is our only vehicle that could fit all of us, and we found out some bad new about my brother-in-law (he has brain cancer and it is covering 95% of the left side of his brain.
So needless to say, when I got home things were definitely out of sorts.  All the work I had done in the living room, dining room and kitchen.......gone.  We had to start looking for a new vehicle and Jason and I hadn't had a good chance to talk about how he was feeling about his brother's situation.

So all week, I have been wanting to move onto my bathroom and start getting caught back up on my 31 Days to Declutter Your Life, but I'll admit it has been REALLY hard.  I have felt like I have let people down who read my posts and are looking forward to seeing my horribly messy house, because I am sure some of your think, "Wow, at least my house doesn't look like, THAT!'  LOL!!

This weekend I have a girls youth retreat in Chicago, but here is my plan.....
I will start cleaning the bathroom before I leave tomorrow and will have it finished by Sunday night.  I will get those posts to you soon.  I am hoping to get back on track this weekend.  Also, be watching because I am going to be posting my $50 shopping trip in the next day or two!!

Thanks for keeping me accountable.  I know that if I didn't have people reading, I could just not do it and no one would know the difference.  My house could stay a mess and it wouldn't matter, except I would be miserable wading through the mess.  So thank you to those who read and keep me accountable.  I really appreciate it!
