Holding off Chaos


It takes so much energy to hold off chaos. I know I have been been setting back the chaos all day. We started at 9:30 this morning by doing tyh4 dishes and ninety minutes after that we started on the bedroom.. The bedroom has been slipping in to chaos for the past six months. It is just so hard as one season slips into the next. One set of clothes is brought in from the shed thinking the other set will go out and the past season remains but is not used. Last season's get buried with washes of clothes never getting hung because there is not room because the former season's continue to take up space, throw in a couple of holidays—especially Christmas with gift clothes which add to th cycle of chaos, a couple of trips to the Shopko, Sears, or Target and soon you have chaos so grand you feel you, the human organism is getting crowed out by the garments. But today something moved us. Today, went o the bedroom following the dishes and we took on the chaos and brought order to the room. The reigning in has taken four hours maybe more but we have just about brought our order to the chaos of the clothes. Maybe next weekend chaos management be shorter.
