Disorganized Perfectionist!

So... I admit I'm a little bit of a clean freak, I like the thought of being organized. however I think I would best describe myself as a disorganized perfectionist!
Diaries have never worked for me. I tried the technological way on my iPhone it didn't work either.
So I would go over an over stuff in my mind. I have forever been a to do list person. I like the feeling of crossing off what I have achieved. Then I would loose it, take it, forget it, or someone else would steal it or draw all over it. So that drove me a little crazy too.

Until now.... (Drum roll!) Pinterest is my haven! It had given me the inspiration I needed to create our own Naylor family command centre. I'm determined this will be the answer.... Hehe
