I have gone through this house top to bottom several times in the last few months in order to get ready for it.
But I kept skipping the office/craft room.
Too much work.
Finally, enough was enough and I just did it.
I took every blessed thing out of the closet.
I removed every item from every shelf and out of every box, drawer or basket.
Oy.
I have gone through every single thing, down to ribbons, thread, zippers, beads, stickers, moss, paint, glue...you name it, it's been gone through, de-cluttered and reorganized.
But now I'm tired.
And in the midst of this insanity, I overhauled the boys room as well.
I must have ADD.
Why, oh why can't I just do ONE thing at a time??
Throw potty training Levi in the mix too.
Just call me a looney.
Looney Lainey.
It fits.
{Just keeping it real! This was a random shot my hubby took in the midst of the chaos} |
What have you organized lately?
Ever take on too much and just feel like quitting in the middle??

I always start the process of decluttering something, then find myself in another room decluttering it, although I hadn't finished the previous. :) I must have that A.d.d. syndrome. haha.
ReplyDeleteMercy, you look just the same. :)
two days ago, I took all my sets of dishes (and strays I love too much to pitch) out of all my cabinets and hutches - filled my dining room table, chairs, buffet, etc - this morning, after inventory and culling, I put them back in a more orderly fashion - love opening cupboards and seeing order! My boys are college-age now, so I have more free time, but it is amazing how long projects like this can take!
ReplyDeleteI am organizing all the time and strangely your picture made me feel better that your house isn't perfect and decluttered (but all the pics make it look so nice!). I recently went around my house and took pictures of all the projects I wanted to do or things that needed improving or organizing. I came up with 15 pages!Now on to starting the list!
