Happy Spring Cleaning!

Spring time often means getting life reorganized. For me, I can't organize my life until I've organized my house. And since it's the weekend *and* the spring equinox, I thought I'd share with all of you the things I have bookmarked in my "household" file:

I've copied and pasted a couple of these into OneNote so I can reread them as needed. Everything was great!! Very helpful and the timing is perfect. My mom arrives on Sunday to help with the house. We'll be referencing your tips!

Whoohoo! I'm in the mood to do a lot of purging this week, myself. :)

These tips are so ridiculously helpful, I can't even stand it! I was going to go through my closet tonight, but I always feel horrible throwing out things that I haven't worn in forever, because "what if the fashions cycle (yet again) and I want to wear_____, but I've tossed it!" I needed someone to tell me "get over it and toss it already!" and those tips did the trick. I feel so much better looking at my closet. I can actually find my clothes! It's so exciting.

Yay! I'm so glad it helped. It's easy to get overwhelmed, but if you have some guidelines, it goes amazingly well. And being able to *see* your clothes is quite a reward, isn't it? ;)

Gas mask? Cattle prod to ake her do it? Try the carrot, if the stick doesn't work. ;)
