[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s hard - so hard - when you’re naturally an organized and anal person like me.  And having more room doesn’t help.

Here’s the kind of thing that torments my soul: [b]Little wooden puzzle letters O and D are currently lost [/b]way under a heavy couch where nothing reaches them. Aside from spending hours initially looking for them, I now have to watch DC play with an incomplete toy and give up on him ever learning to spell “dog”.

We have a place for almost every toy (damn excavator doesn’t fit in toy cabinet) and every amazon box arriving from grandma sets my teeth on edge because there is no place for it whatever’s it might be!

We have labeled bins, shelves, cabinets and canvas stand-up bags (for stuffed animals).

Of course I’m exaggerating but my only true solution is to relax about it all.  My perfect home, like my perky breasts, are gone forever.   We have kids.  Kids have stuff.  We’ll have nice homes again when they’re away at college (and maybe get a boob job). [/quote]

Ha! This kills me, we lost the “R” and one of my kids needs it in their name. No clue where it went. So long, R.[/quote]
