journaling: Recently my Mom has been saying that she is overwhelmed with everything that needs to be done around their house and that she can’t keep up with everything. I think her biggest problem is just getting started and then things pile up. So this summer I’ve been making an effort to go over and just help with projects and clutter around their house. On this day we decided to try out their new burn barrel. My Mom had 2 garbage bags of old paperwork that she cleaned out of the filing cabinet she wanted to get rid of. We burned all of the papers and we also started burning the pile of leftover wood on the patio. There was a gigantic ivy vine growing over the top of the wood and into the yard. I battled that for an hour and got all of that cleaned up. Then I also moved a bunch of stray wood out of the yard and back on the patio so she can mow around there easier too. The final task was to drag the filing cabinet out to front porch. I was EXHAUSTED when I got home, but I was sure happy with the progess we made.
