Isn't it crazy how when you say, yeah I am so proud of myself...things start to turn around that instant, and then you are not doing as well anymore...hence this week I have gotten barely any cleaning done...my fears have crept up, leaving me paralyzed in the wake of my many addictions and losses.

 

So, my cleaning adventure continues...I have come to a new point...I am finally admitting I need help, so come on over on the 30th.  I will humbly take whatever help I can get, and the idea of others coming over will further motivate me to move my arse in motion again.

If anyone is free in the evenings between now and then, again I would graciously take your help for a little one-on-one organizing, before the rush comes and I have people (i.e. ROB :) ) coming over wanting to throw away all of my stuff. 

It is hard for me to ask for help and I feel that I am asking a lot of someone in this particular situation, since going through my things with me leaves me very vulnerable...turning me grumpy, emotional and a little hard to deal with...( I have a lot of shame, guilt and embarrassment over my head in this part of my life)  On the other hand, when I am motivated...miracles happen, you could see me have a breakthrough right before your eyes.  You could make a difference in my life... :)  *cheesy smile*  Just thought I would get the truth out there....Any takers? 

My biggest fear is that I will no longer have any friends, because you might see a part of me that you never want to be around again...so please be easy on me...I ask for your forgiveness ahead of time and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart now, that you would even be willing to go to the depths with me....

Love you ALL,

Gina

The reasons I have avoided helping you with this project in the past are as follows.

A.  I don't want you to hate me later for convincing you to throw something out that it turns out you need.  I have visions of you in your nice tidy home six months from now screaming to Thomas "I told Sandra I would need my half chewed pencil with no eraser from the 4th grade."

B. I'm very task oriented.  Even when I clean my house, I want no one arround to distract me.  If David or Erin talk to me I get very frustrated.  I see the goal and I want to reach it with no interuptions.  If I'm in serious organization mode, I don't even eat or go to the bathroom until it's done.  See, I'm very task oriented.

So, having said all that, I would love to help if you promise not to hate me later and not to be offended if I don't responde to you while I'm cleaning.  If you chose to agree to these terms, I'm free next week.  This week I'm still stuck covering for David. 

In the meantime,  check out www.flylady.com  for some really great decluttering tips to get you on track and keep you focused.  She breaks everything down into days so the entire task doesn't seem so daunting.  They FLYing lessons are great!

I will help too, but only if you agree to Sandra's terms cause she sounds just like me.  Maybe when she comes out I will come out too and the two of us can be task oriented together
