Dream Fulfilled

Most people wouldn't count getting an attic cleaned and organized a dream fulfilled, but if a task has been nagging at you in your mind, finishing it definitely feels like having a dream fulfilled!

What area has been bothering you about your home?  Choose one spot.  Just jump in with both feet and "git-er-done!"  It really feels good and  simplifies your mind.  Have you had a goal you've thought about for years and never gotten around to doing it?  Just start.  Even if everything isn't in place at the beginning, it will simplify your head to just do it.

For years since an acquaintance told me about her Iditarod Dogsled Race unit she taught each year at school, I have wanted to create it and use it as a springboard for weaving in all my subjects for those two weeks the Iditarod runs.  This year I finally did it and I couldn't be more pleased!  It feels good to finally accomplish what's been nagging me, and the students and I are loving what we are learning.

So, think about this simplification idea in terms of a location in your home OR a goal you've had that has never been begun.  It's worth starting.
