Project July 6, 2015

[Shelly]

I've actually been doing projects for the last few months, but just haven't had time to post about them. 

I've read the book, "The life changing magic of tidying up" and have been using her methods for the last month. I really like her ideas, but some of them aren't practical for our house and family so I'm needing to improvise. For example, she likes to have people have a closet for each person to keep their belongings in. We have 1 closet total in our house. (The joys of living in a very old house). Anyway, I've done clothing, books and paper and now I'm moving on to misc and I'm needing some accountability. It's getting harder and I'm wanting to throw in the towel already.

I think I'm going to tackle dishes and glassware next.

I know!  Me too!  And the funny thing is that I am just about done.  Other than the basement, which I don't even want to think about.   Well, I guess I really am not done because this month's big project is the homeschool room.  It should be fun to do though.  I have been getting lots of ideas that I have been incorporating from blogs lately.  Super helpful.  I'll be your organizing buddy.   Maybe we can keep each other movin'.
