This should be sub-titled "An Answered Prayer." God certainly blessed me this past week. I've been drowning in clutter in my office (you couldn't even call it a schoolroom, because I couldn't let the children in without close supervision!) And who would want to learn in this mess:


This picture is actually after she was here for 5 minutes and suggested that I use my space better by thinking VERTICAL. I moved the crates on top of this shelving unit and it made a big difference:

It was definitely a dangerous journey to reach the puzzles and games in this closet:
For over a year I've been asking God to send someone to help me get organized and He has! First someone offered up a vanload of FREE storage containers and then, He sent another angel to put everything in its place!

Amy Larimer came to my house one Saturday morning and while our 8 children played, she completely turned my room around:



My six yr old daughter loved helping with the labels. ;0)

She REALLY wants me to install a couple of shelves in this closet (even called to offer her husband to come and do it, but we were out all weekend!)


OK, I did promise her that I would organize my books and I still need to do that, BUT it looks 100% better and I think we'll actually be able to BEGIN school this week!!  Yay! Praise God and thanks to Amy for your help!!
