You are what keep me going and as long as people are interested, I’ll keep plugging along. I love this community!
One year ago my first post read:
Okay so I’ve been told…I’m a freak….I LOVE to organize…it is my drug of choice what can I say. It’s what I do when I’m bored, mad, happy or sad. A day is not a day unless I’ve organized something…anything…I need it….I go mad searching, searching, anything, room, closet, cupboard, drawer, anything….I do my thing…empty…purge…containerize…assemble….only then when I see my finished work…I feel calm, I sigh and everything is right with the world….until I need my next fix of course and the cycle continues. Join me as I cronicle the life of an organizing JUNKIE!
Thanks for a wonderful year!!

Tracey says
Happy Blogiversary! I just had mine the other day, too! I just wandered over here today for the first time on Judy Laquidara’s suggestion. I think the menu planning Monday is a good idea. I sat down and planned for this week before I went shopping and I think I spent a lot less than I otherwise would have!
Tracy says
You have only been doing this for a year??!! Wow, you are good!! I love coming here and getting inspired to get moving and organizing. I was also an organizing junkie (freak) and then I had my second child. I’m not sure what he did to me but I need to get my organizing groove back in a big hurry!!!
Keep on blogging and I will keep on coming and reading (and eventually organizing!)

~Betty~ @ On the Journey to Victory says
Happy 1 Year Anniversary! Your blog is one of my favorites. When I don’t have time to read all of my bloglines, your blog is one I do not miss.
I am one that has truly been changed since I have been reading your blog. Last week a friend of mine complimented me of how organized I was and I wanted to laugh. Inside I was thinking it wouldn’t happened without Laura, because I wasn’t that way a year ago. I have always wanted to be orgainzed, through your blog I have learned how to become organized. (I am still working on it too.)
Thanks for blogging!
~Betty~

1st time commenting. I found your blog through a friend of mine who mentioned your Monday meal plans. I cooked the Pizza Pancakes that you posted a few weeks back and they were a big hit. My husband brought them to work the next day and the guys laughed at him. lol But as soon as he told them what it was they wanted the recipe. Thanks for all your advice and meal planning!

I am not yet an organising freak or even very good at it yet – however I am trying to bless my wonderful husband and fantastic children by creating an organised home for us free of clutter so we can simply spend more time enjoying each other.

Hey Laura
Happy anniversary! How amazing that it’s the same day as annie’s time travel tuesday where she asks what was your first blog post?! Cool…
I can’t believe it’s only a year. BTW, your timing is perfect for your other venture as you can see from some of the comments. I am sitting here smiling – don’t you love it?!
And 93 comments! My word – my goal is 10!
Have a great day!
Karen says
Been lurking for awhile, but this will be my motive for posting.
Just got back from vacation. Two weeks in a two-bedroom villa with NO clutter. It motivated me to come home and do something about THIS place! I loved the peace of not tripping over things and being emotionally fatigued from looking around at clutter! 🙂
Wishing myself luck! 🙂

Hope that helps,
