An Attempt at Returning to "Organizationville"

During our recent move from one state to another, my weekly schedule was "cast to the wind". There were no weekly menus; Mountain-o-Laundry Mondays; Tuesday shopping days (with coupons in hand and list of needed items); regular trash-gathering and house-cleaning (although, having our old house on the market was a cleaning blitz that never seemed to end!)
I'm a person who thrives on having a weekly plan. I know that rigid schedules can put a damper on spontaneity, but if you're flexible, I believe it makes a home run much more smoothly. So, as I ran back and forth from one location to the other until we closed on the house, I kept reminding myself that this chaos would not last forever. I'm happy to report that today I will be posting a menu! Hey, it's a start (oh, and I have my first load of laundry in the washer).
