Quest to become more organized

As time winds down literally (15 weeks before baby boy is here) I am starting to realize that my house needs yet again another session of decluttering and organizing. I have gotten a million ideas from friends and family but they don't seem to work. So I resorted back to FLYLADY.NET to assist me in this big task. She has some amazing ideas for tackling the house and staying on a schedule and so far her methods work for me. So I am going to dive in once again and use her decluttering methods until my house CLUTTER FREE. Now as for organizing I have yet to find a system that works. I was sitting on my bed looking at all the stuff that was unorganized and lord behold a show came on called "The Amandas." These girls are organizing gurus who will come into your house and organize it for you, but honestly I don't want that I want to do it myself. So I am on a quest to use some of the ideas I see on the show as well as on the website. I might even download the app and subscribe to the emails for $12.99 until I am completely organized. WISH ME LUCK and drop me some lines ladies. Do ya'll have any organizing or decluttering tips for me.

Emotional Rollercoaster

This pregnancy not mention the kids, school and everything is taken a toll on me. I feel myself losing grip of reality (well not literally) but you know what I mean. I'm shedding more tears than clouds over my house and it's driving me crazy. How much longer will I do this cause I've been going every two days LORD HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Follow directions please!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know if anyone else is having this problem my 4 yr old db is driving me crazy, literally. I tell him to do something and it's like a party to him. He has every intention on doing it but he gets distracted by the littlest things, like if he walks past my dd who can playing by herself, he'll stop and play with her. I have no idea what to do. I think to myself, what is wrong with this boy. Here is the kicker though, he gets smiley faces at school all week, but when he gets home he's like a different kid. He's hypered and hard headed. Any tips on what to do? I am confused and I have a headache dealing with day in and day out.

Teething= no sleep :(

It has been one heck of a day but I am up for the challenge. lol (Well I guess if I wasn't it won't matter cause my family still needs me). The boys went back to school today and after being off of routine for a week for thanksgiving break I was totally stressed trying to get them back on track. Somehow we managed to leave on time (thank the lord). However after a long monday, my bg's teeth finally decided to come through. All night long she tossed, turned, fussed, and cried. I have to be honest, I completely forgot what that was like till last night and I started to second guess my strength this morning. Am I going to be able to handle to little ones at the same time. I mean what the world am I going to do when they are teething at the same time (smh). I guess the real test will come when it's actually here right. I hope I don't lose my mind.
