Organization Challenge

Admittedly I am organizationally challenged.  No matter how many times I clean up and reorganize things so it works for me I always find myself repeating the cycle.  About 6 weeks ago I looked for some organization blogs.  One in particular had a 30 day challenge to recreate one space.  I contemplated doing it but I could not commit to spending 30 days, my attention span is not that great.  Instead I decided to tackle one small area in one short period of time.  This weekend I was supposed to be cleaning out my bathroom closet.  One day of pull everything out, one day of sort, organize, purge, buy storage and the last day dedicated to put it all back in nice and neat.

I guess I got a little over zealous because tonight it all came out, got purged, and put back in.  I have like small bags of trash that I will take out in the morning.  You just don't know how good it felt to get rid of so much "stuff"!!!

Now I am going to crash.  Good night.

Box or....WHAT?

Hmmmm....what can I make out of this (actually I have 2 of them).  A few ideas are swirling around my mind.  Stay tuned...

Quick Dinner- Chicken Potpie Cupcakes

You want something quick and easy to make then this is the recipe for you.  The first time I make anything it takes me forever but trust me the second time around I know this will be a breeze.  This recipe found its way to me via Pinterest however the original is here.

Modifications for next time, use a thinner biscuit and perhaps thin out the potpie broth some.  This will be made again.  Easy to pop in the lunch box on day 2 as well.

Cleaning Day

Yesterday was officially a day of cleaning.  While I didn't get everything cleaned up it was a big dent.  I like things nice and tidy but for some reason it is always like a tornado has whirled through.  My method for yesterday was to spend 30 min in each area.  It is amazing what you can do in 30 min with some focus.  I was quite pleased with the results and plan on doing it like this more often.

There are some charts floating around on the Internet on what to clean if you have 10 min, 20 min, 30 min.  I  may have to revisit one of those an incorporate into my daily efforts.  As I get better I can only hope that 10 min should be the most I need for most things.

I MUST Be Crazy

Last year of a friend of mine did the Warrior Dash and wanted me to do it.  Thinking it would be something fun for me and my girls to do together we were a little disappointed when my youngest didn't meet the age requirement.  Well, here we are one year later and one year older.  So guess who is all signed up for the Warrior Dash.  I think this will be a lot of fun for me and my girls.

I'll let you know how it goes
