getting things done!

so, so, so happy our office is getting organized. just need a few more things, including another computer, and it will be fantastic! us type A's don't do well in messy, unorganized spaces!

i'm getting the organizing bug in all aspects of my life! am going through drawers and throwing things out...trying to get more decorating done...pictures hung, the girls' rooms finished, the toy room finished. i hate not finishing products. had such a lazy winter and now i am ready to tackle all the loose ends!

the biggest project is the yard. i did get 2 more quotes for driveways and they were less than 1/2 the price of the first one. how is that possible when we're talking thousands of dollars? i have heard so many mixed reviews about stamped concrete- doesn't hold up, is slippery, etc. one of the companies i spoke to said they use a different process now to make it less slippery, including a coating with sand in it. i am just so confused! i love the look of it, but don't want to regret it...afterall, it's quite a bit of $$$. any advice?

aside from that, ryan starts swimming lessons tonight- unassisted. not sure how this is going to play out. she is typically independent when it comes to activities, but she has mentioned not wanting to put her head under the water about a thousand times! perry is taking her so it's all good!

off to tidy the house and to think about dinner prep

have a good night

I think it is the "spring cleaning" instincts we all have! I have also been tackling boxes at my house. It is a very good feeling to be getting things organized. Good luck with all your projects.
