Camping Kitchen Gear
My house is such a mess!?

I just came back from being away for two weeks. First, I went alone to my class reunion and when I came back after that week we left for Maine. In addition to that I just got 10 boxes of my things from my move from Hawaii. So, I have Camping Gear, luggage, boxes and general I am home stuff every where. I am so frazzled when my house is not tidy that I am going nuts. I am tired. The kids and I thought we made a dent in the work today,but it is still leaving me feeling overwhelmed. How should I tackle this mess? The kitchen is primarily cleaned. The living room seems to be the dropping off spot. I feel like we should make on big pile in the living room and then start sorting and separating things and then finding places for them. Does this sound reasonable or can someone else tell me how I should tackle this...BIG SIGH....mess....and don't say light a match and run...LOL....(it is against the law.....or I would...LOL)

Well it does sound like you have a big mess on your hands but fear not it is manageable. What you will need to do is AFTER a good night's sleep try and take a mental note of what needs to be tackled first. The items in the living room are probably where you will want to start, I would start with the camping gear, then luggage, and anything else that seems out of place. That might take a day, so the next day if everything else was put up then start on un-packing those boxes. It might take a couple of days but you will get through it. And heck if your kids can help without making a bigger mess get them involved too. Good Luck with everything.
