Tackle It Tuesday #111
![]() |

Well ladies, I am doing a bit better this week emotionally… I got to talk with my pastor’s wife on Sunday which helped a lot because she told me she loved me - it seems that was really all I needed to hear. :o) She told me a lot of other things that helped also, but it meant a lot to know I was loved.
She is holding me accountable to my schedule that I shared a few weeks ago… so today I actually got some time in the word along with tackling something big (for me it is) look…

Way to go Carolyn!!!
I’m so happy to hear you’re feeling better this week. And that’s an amazing laundry job.
I find laundry can be so overwhelming when it builds up like that… and mine has a way of building.

Great tackle! I did one of my closets. It was a mess! It doesn’t LOOK much better, but believe me, it is!

It is good to hear that you are feeling better. I had so much laundry piled up last week that I took it to a laundromat just so that I could get it ALL done at one time. Yikes!

Great job! My laundry used to accumulate like that and then we moved to a new house where the washer and dryer are in my bathroom. I do a much better job now that I have to look at it everytime I walk into my bathroom. I finally got my sons room put together and tackled the huge piles of paperwork that were laying on the floor after we got a new desk. Boy is it a relief to have that stuff done.

I have been wondering if your depression is a imbalance of some vitamins?. I just read a blog not to long ago that she was having the same problem & was low in idoine. Her thryoid is out of wack. She took some drops and it helped her alot.

Great job! I hate laundry! My Tackle was more of a push for me. Trying to get myself to finish a project. Hoping that posting it and the comments will get my butt into gear!

I’m glad you’re feeling better! And what an awesome job on the laundry.
#20 - Amy @ 12:04 pm
Way to go! Mountains of laundry are too overwhelming.. whenever I have a big pile like that, I just hide parts of it so I don’t get too freaked out by the sheer size of the pile! Ah! Nice job getting it all done.
#21 - Kristi @ 12:32 pm
I do a great job washing, drying, and folding. It’s the putting away that tends to get me.
#22 - Mozi Esme's Mommy @ 1:23 pm

Love Tackle it Tuesday!
#29 - Organizing Mommy @ 10:17 pm
Wow! That’s a good job on the laundry!! When I have a big pile like that, I sort BEFORE I fold, so it makes putting it all away less daunting. The garage I organized was my MIL’s at the cottage. We had a blast. Glad you are feeling better
