Absent (and a giveaway)

Ooooh, I feel like I have been absent from both of my blogs lately. I guess I am so busy away from the computer that it has just passed me by. Here is what I have been up to: (I love listing things out. Makes me feel I don't have to be a good writer - which I'm so not.)
1. Mending proverbial fences.
2. The biggest time sucker in my life right now is decluttering my home! I have just about finished the whole house, and I do mean whole house. Closets, drawers, attics, garages, shelves. You name it, I've been through it. I'm having a GARAGE SALE this Saturday morning to get rid of everything I don't LOVE or USE. Mike even got in on the action and I am getting him to go through his boxes from college.
3. Organizing my days. I'm trying to find a rythym for my daily life. When should I clean, do laundry, play with Lily, feed the dogs, etc. Sounds so ridiculous, I know. Like, shouldn't I have this down by now? I'm 35 years old. But I don't. I'm very fly by the seat of my pants and it's taken its toll.
4. Various projects. I joined the Unravelling class (which is AWESOME! join the next session - do it!!) I am still working on the mini-journal class. I hated my last tag...it was so bad that I cannot show it. I'm so very rusty on scrappin. I am one week behind and hope to produce something showable for the question "If I could do it all again, would I change anything?" Jen Hunter and I have a little photo collaboration we're working on here. So, I'm a busy bee. I wish sometimes I could just relax.

Last, if you have gotten this far with my rambling, I have a silly, teeny, tiny giveaway. I have two things I don't use or want. Both brand new. They are free to a good home. Just be the first to leave a comment and I'll send them your way!

Thing the first: The non-planner datebook
Thing the second: Wheels Go Round Kindermusik cd

Wow! Sounds like you have been busy. I can't wait to hear how the garage sale goes. About organizing your day.... That is SO me! I think about that all the time and never get in a rythym. The only thing I am consistent about is laundry on Tues, sometimes Mon. Ha! Seriously, if you figure this out, PLEASE share tips for a fellow fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pantser.
