Question:
Attention moms that seem to have it together!!...How do you do it??
I know nobody is perfect but compared to other parents I am NOT as organized as a lot of people I know. This is a major problem in my life. A lot of people tell me I am just not a very organized peron but I know there must be a way to be because I have such a desire to lead a better life. I feel like I go around in circles and I cant find any balance in my life. I am divorced so I am a single mom. I have three little ones who really need a more balanced mom. They thrive on structure which I seem to be lacking. Any advice would be appreciated.

Honestly, if anyone has the right to be disorganized, it's you! It is a major feat having 3 kids and being a single working mom. I'm a married working mom of one and I get overwhelmed so I really am amazed at single moms who do it all.
Don't be so hard on yourself :). If you want to get organized, take it slow, organize a little at a time.
A good book is "Organizing from the Inside Out" by Julie Morgenstern" http://www.amazon.com/organizing-inside-...
Also http://www.organizedhome.com has a lot of great hints and bulletin boards.
http://www.flylady.net/ is also a great, useful website.
