Today's fire is an ongoing issue I have. I want to clean, organize, donate, reduce, reuse, and recycle. But I always want to donate things to their best home, like I'm finding a forever home for a pet. So I hold on to things till I can get them to good owners. Now I have a pile of stuff, including a chair that can be fixed, other odds and ends, and a pile of items to put in the memory boxes clogging up my entry way. I realize my biggest issues is I plan way too big, to the point of unattainability and then feel like I am a failure because I didn't obtain the unattainable. I have to ask myself what am I trying to prove with these castles in the sky I continually build and then mourn the loss of when the crumble. So for 2020, I set a goal of setting more reasonable goals. We will have to see if that is a goal I can meet.

So nearly every room and the outside of my house has at least a mini dumpster fire simmering. As we are not traveling, we are doing a whole host of projects on the house. But this means MESS. Like for real MESS! Today's #dailydumpster is all the stuff I pulled out of the attic for a two part project of 1) cleaning out the attic obviously, but 2) to make room for the electrician to come and do wiring for a new light fixture for our dining room remodel/redo. So it's a hectic mess here, but a good friend told me today that mess is part of the process and to not fight it, to just work through it. Good advice for this and for so many other things. So here is to embracing the mess and pushing on through.

Hey guys you know what quarantine really needs???  A leaky sink that pours water into your basement! It's a real icing-cake situation! So that's my #dailydumpster after a lengthy break (that don't worry had plenty of fires)! As you can see all my cleaning supplies are sitting in baskets on my counter since I have to wait for a plumber to come tomorrow. So it's fine. I'm fine!
