My Goal This Week

Something has to be done about this!
My desk seems to be the place where everyone puts things when they don't know where they go. Then I have to figure it out. The other night I needed to get my sewing machine out and I decided it's time to get busy tidying up in here! The tote and box are full of pictures that we brought home from my father in law's. Our plan is to scan them and make digital copies so that everyone in the family can have copies. But after looking at them and realizing just how many pictures there are I decided that this is a job for after we finish school because it's going to take awhile~. But there are some pretty neat pictures and family history stuff in there so it will be fun.

 Why is it every surface seems to  collect clutter? The sad thing is that I put a bunch of stuff away already. :( I need to find a nail to hang up my new plaque over the printers.

Piles and boxes going to Goodwill or needing to be sold online. New home school catalogs to be perused through and some new fabric that needs organized and put away. So glad the Goodwill truck is in town so I can get most of this out of the house today. Anyone have good tips on how to store wrapping paper?

Like the quilt? This is one made my great- grandmother. I love the bright colors and it looks great on my yellow walls. I have another one that I usually hang there in the summer so it will be changing soon.

Okay, time to get school finished so I can get to work in here!

A Clean Slate


I went through my old posts and I didn't really like them. Some of them were whiny, some were redundant, and in some posts I had shared things that should have never been put out there in public like it was.

I could have kept some of my recipe and craft posts, but I was in a mood for a fresh start. So I deleted them all. I get in those kind of moods once in awhile. Sometimes when I'm cleaning house I throw out a bunch of stuff I've been saving for a long time. I just decide it's been long enough and clear stuff out. Rarely do I regret it, I like getting rid of clutter in my life. I figure as long as I keep the important things like my husband and kids it's okay.
How about you? Do you ever go through a spell where you just want to clear your life of all the clutter?
