So the other day I talked about tackling laundry, the kitchen, and the papers taking over my desk. Here are the promised "after" pictures:
My Shiny, Sunny Kitchen
The Surface of My Desk Does, In Fact, Exist
Mostly-Empty Laundry Baskets
Empty hampers and clear surfaces make me happy. Unfortunately, they don't tend to stay that way for long. I guess I can understand where the dirty clothes and dishes are coming from, but what's going on with the papers? Are they reproducing when I'm not looking? All I know is, I think I have it under control, then I turn around and they attack!
Congrats to you for tackling your cleaning projects. I'm working little by little on decluttering my desk, too. There are so many papers on it. It's so sad. :(
That's the way to go: little by little! Isn't it amazing how much paper accumulates?
I just found your blog and wow I really like your laundry room where did you find those neat dividers for your laundry?

Joy, I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond! The comment kind of got lost in my inbox. Anyway, I think we got them at Target. The frame isn't the sturdiest thing, but I love that I can take out the individual bags. I keep it in the master bedroom and just take whatever basket I need down to the laundry room.
The little hamper used to be Chickpea's when she was a baby. Now I use it to hold items that need to be hand washed or Dryel-ed. =)
OH~I have had a few days like this myself. Four children later and 18 years of homeschooling~now I think I can tackle the world! Keep up the good work!

LOL You're my hero! I only have one child and I often feel like my life is one step away from spinning out of control. I think God prepares us for the challenges He's going to give us, but sometimes I'm a little afraid to be tested... =)
