Wow! You had me with “Today was the last day of school for the kids.” I start homeschooling on August 1st!! One month! And since we do that, I KNOW what you mean about piles talkin’ to ya! But, congrats to you for keepin’ your word to your kids that you would wait on them to go through it! Happy organizing! (Though I’d bet you’re through by now!! One night is ok, but not a whole weekend for you!)

I don’t know, Laura. That’s actually a pretty neat looking pile to me. You should see the mess I used to have just from cleaning out school backpacks!

No, it doesn’t surprise me at all that “things” are talking to you. LOL

If I had “pile phobia” around here, I would need meds for *sure*. They are never ending! Have fun sorting the cr-, um, school supplies. And let us know where you put it all. :)

Geez…I sure hope it’s not wrong, because I have honestly been known to do just that. Really. Hate those nasty piles. And yet they reproduce faster than rabbits. So I have been known to just “throw it all out”. (Doesn’t always make my family too happy with me though. But I don’t do it too often.)

Laura, do you know that your blog has no feed available for those of us with feed readers? I would love to add you to my feed reader but just can’t until you turn that option on. Is that a possibility?

Wow, you get out of school late! We’ve been out for two full weeks now. The first day of vacation I ordered my two to bring their school stuff to the living room, and they went through it there. It’s a big relief when it’s done! It’s probably a bit easier for me, though, because one of mine is 16 (the other is 10…and the other one is almost 22 and I don’t SEE his school stuff!).

Hey Sue! Congrats to Torey, that is awesome!
We got it done today and I'm so proud of the kids for how little they really did want to keep.
I'm also going thru and sorting/tidying up their memory boxes before putting the new stuff in.
More on that to come....
