Thank you for your responses. The suggestion for the "Getting Around to It" Paraliminal struck a chord with me, so I decided to try that one. In the course of the last couple of days I realized that indeed, I am NOT a slob. What I am is completely overwhelmed...I have found a private school for the Fall that will accomodate my son and he will be happy in...miraculously, figured out a way to pay for it...and, I decided to go to school half time instead of full time...working full time, school full time, and homeschooling...what was I thinking...I'm suppose to be Suzy Homemaker on top of all that?...oh, I'm a single mom, too....... ....thanks, guys
