pulling hair out

Question!!! Why do I get the urge to tear my house apart to organize it right before I have company coming?? Why is it that a transition from a pack and play to a big boy bed resulted into a whole house organization?

We have good friends of ours coming and I am putting the spare room together. We decided now of all times would be a great time to buy a new bed. The plan was that we would move our bed into the spare room and get a new bed. Then I thought of making that the permanent spare room (since Jay still sleeps in our room) and then when he gets older have the boys share a room. So, in all of that I realize that Bobby has soo many toys and the reason that our house is such a mess all the time is that I get overwhelmed by the amount of toys that are out and that they don't have an exact place to go. Hence why I put off putting them off because it's all too overwhelming.

So, I went out and bought organization stuff, new bedding (one for our new bed-since we went from a queen to a king and one for bobby's new bed) and more organization stuff. Now, in the attempt to keep me stressfree and the house organized, I just overwhelmed by the amount of clutter of it all that is just sitting in my living room. Are you kidding me?? I am trying to avoid and I just made it even worse. All right before company....GOSH DARN IT!!!!

I hate when I do a plan and it all backfires on me. I am trying to eliminate the stress of clutter and I am just making it 10x worse. I suck sometimes!! I should have done it a little at a time instead of it all at one time. Woops....I should have thought about that beforehand. Oh well-It may just take a little longer to do but it will be done and I will be happier when it does. I just want to have a organized house and a stress free environment. How come that is so hard to attain when I try so hard. Oh well. :) It will all work out in the end... Or so we hope :)
