Okay, so I need your help!!

I need to blog on a more disciplined schedule.  But where do I draw the line??  Is keeping everybody’s name out of this keeping our anonymity??  Am I jeopardizing our privacy, or the girls feelings, by letting everyone on the planet (ok, the handful of people that actually read my posts) know what my innermost feelings are??  Why do I feel the need to tell strangers my deepest thoughts??  Does the answer to that question really matter??  This is what I know, I feel better, more positive, closer to God, praying more regularly, if I share my inner most feelings to strangers.  I don’t feel I can tell anyone else these lovely and sometimes heart breaking details of my life.  Do I need a mental professional??  I can’t afford one!!  Blogging (at least the way I do it) is cheap!!  It’s the easiest form of self therapy I have found.  Quite frankly, journaling doesn’t work for me.  Why write something no one will read, and asking people to read your journal just comes off as a little bit freaky, don’t you think??  Am I in my right mind??  Or even my left mind??  Sorry, a bit of dancer humor, right foot, left foot, just follow me, don’t think about which foot. 
This is the secret to my success as a dance teacher.  Shhh!! Please don’t share that with anyone!!  Have I mentioned how much I LOVE to teach dance.  I LIVE for the moment when the student’s face brightens and actually understands the technique we’ve been working on.  I just wish I had more students.  As I’m typing this one of my new weekly regulars just canceled.  UGH, that is so FRUSTRATING for me.  It comes down to, she didn’t organize her calendar well and she has a conflict.  I’m irritated!!  UGH!!  So, all you blog buddies, are you up for a blogging dance lesson??????????  Cool!!  As soon as I figure out how to do that, I will get right on top of it!! HA!
Seriously, though, would LOVE to hear your comments!!  Let me know what YOU think!!
On a side note, if you EVER notice a typo of ANY sort, PLEASE tell me!!  OK THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Jewelry Organizer?????

Jewelry Organizer
UPDATE on this post.
I love jewelry.  I do.  In moving to a house as a wife I was having trouble finding a place to put everything, since on top of every surface wasn’t acceptable.  I asked for a jewelry organizer for Christmas.  Look what I received!!  I’m so pleased!! Plus I was inspired by the Pioneer Woman’s recent infatuation with a multitude of jewelry organizers.  (If you aren’t familiar with her, please stop and go read, she’s hilarious and teaches lifelong lessons, like how to make gravy from scratch!)
I actually did accomplish something that day.  I think I will let the pictures speak for themselves!!
Here are the three before shots:
1.       Closed – please ignore the pillows on the floor and the wicked trashcan!

2.       Open with hardly anything to show.

3.       The middle of the process, sprawled all over the bed with remote and laptop within reach (just in case my self-motivation lacked at any moment! LOL)

4.       Open with lots of stuff to show.  (Whew, I can finally find what I’m looking for, as long as I can remember long enough what I’m looking for!! LOL)  Please ignore the power cord and the reflection of my husband’s leg in the mirror as he lays across the bed to take the pics!!!

5. Doesn't it look the same full vs. empty??

And the final picture:
What the jewelry organizer has proved to be very convenient at:  my laptop holder!!  HA!!
