Fall Camping Supply List

This past weekend, we went on our first family camp out. We had a great time with friends and the days were beautiful. There was a downside to this amazing camp out though, we forgot a ton of stuff. I knew or felt like I knew that we had forgotten a few things but it turned out to be more than just a few necessities. So, to be more prepared for our next camp out, I am making a supply list. I thought of doing this before hand, but as I have mentioned many times, I am a procrastinator. Procrastination does not pay off and it is something I work on daily to correct or stop. However you want to put it, I am trying to become a person who does it now instead of later.

Here is the list I came up with for my family. We have a big container that holds most of our camping gear right now and that is where I will be placing the camping supply list after I laminate it.

Forgetful Minds

Wednesday already!  The week is flying by and I have so much to do.  We had a busy weekend and our end of the week will be very busy too.  It is no wonder I totally forgot to do Pinterest Saturday.  We will be busy this weekend as well, so I thought I would share my pins today.  Hope you don't mind.

I have been pinning away at all kinds of stuff, from organizing, yummy foods and oh my gosh, Christmas too.  I refuse to post anything Christmas until after Halloween and that goes for my Pinterest page too.  I have only liked Christmas so far.  No commitment to the Pin board yet!

I know it may sound silly, but I am one of those people who can only handle one holiday at a time.  I remember when stores did not put anything Christmas out until after Thanksgiving.  Do you remember that too?  I miss those days.  To me, it makes the holiday much more special when you don't have 2 or 3 shoved in your face at the same time.  One holiday at a time.  That is my motto!

Okay, enough babbling!  Here is what I pinned over the last week and a half.  I am focusing on some great organizing pins.  There are so many creative and very organized people out there with such great examples of how to keep your home and life in order.  I hope these pins inspire you. 

Enjoy the rest of your week and take some Time to Organize.
