Default Happy New Year~I'm getting started!
Old 01-01-2007, 04:14 PM   #1 (permalink)

Got up this morning in a mood to clean~Believe me this is very unusual but I am SO going to get my home in order!!!



Believe me there have been many that have tried to discourage me but I will Get 'er done!



Today I'm working on the den area. Moving a few things~dusting~decluttering & organizing!

Went to Target and picked up some storage cubes to put my yarn and supplies in. I have decided that this will be my craft area~there is a love seat, a curio cabinet with all of my frogs! This will be my crafting sanctuary!



I will take photos of my accomplishments!

mgf~

I started totally cleaning up yesterday I woke up to a MUCH cleaner Kitchen and a scrubbed out fridge! I took out every shelf and bin and cleaned it out



Today I cleaned off my desk. I took every peiceof paper off and filed it... somehow


I have also been going through the shelves in the livingroom amd trying to get them sorted out as well.



As soon as young child is asleep, I plan to put a few of her toys away and maybe start the dish washer.



Tomorrow I plan to attack the bathrooms and I am hoping to do more in the livingroom as well

Awesome!!

Glad to hear that you both got a good start yesterday~I was still working on board tidying~


I did get a good start and am actually closer to being finished in the den. It just amazes me as to how much stuff I have! Did get the shelves set up and filled with yarn. Went thru some stuff and will be listing it on Freecycle closer to the up coming weekend. I hate to have a bunch of stuff on the porch waiting pickup.

Tomorrow when I get home from the office I will get back to work on the den. Once I get that room clean I will take photos to share!

Keep up the good work~

mgf~

I just went through Slidette's shelves and straightened out the books and toys (took about 1/2 an hour) What I should do soon is go through and pick out what books she has out grown and get rid of them or store them (depending on what they are)

I think another hour ... (maybe two) will get hte livingroom back in order.... I am so happy about this!
