“And this mess is so big
And so deep and so tall,
We cannot pick it up.
There is no way at all!”
― Dr. Seuss, The Cat in the Hat
This is untrue, of course.
Charming, but untrue.
This is what children say when they don’t want to clean their rooms, only they don’t rhyme as well.
If you are an adult, and you catch yourself making this kind of excuse to avoid cleaning or organizing, you must remind yourself that you CAN do it. It might take a while, and it might be stressful, but it can certainly be done.
Have some faith in yourself, focus on the goal, and take breaks.
You can do it!

Oh, you’ve peeked in my closet, haven’t you?
I have been thinking that this quote can apply to all sorts of messes…like the economy for example.
I think Thing 1 and Thing 2 came over to my place after they were done with Lisa’s closet over at Bigsheep.
Those Things are trouble, no doubt about it. I always related to The Fish in the Pot.
Just order a “voom” online. That will help you clean up those messes!
