Closet Clean out!

You will need 2 bags and a box for this chore. Bags: Donate/Garage Sale & Throw away Box: Store for next season To make room in your closet only have hanging what is in season. Store the turtle necks, sweaters and wool pants for next fall/winter. Make sure that you store your winter/fall clothes in a container that is waterproof and has a secure lid. Anything that you have not worn since last season...too big, too small, or just not your taste anymore goes in the Garage Sale/Donate bag. This will make room for new clothes or space so that dear ol' hubby has some more room. Anything that has holes in it, like hubby's favorite air conditioned shirt. You know they all have their favorite shirt that looks so ratty...take a pair of scissors to it and use for cleaning cloths then throw them away. You can color code each closet with hangers... that way when doing laundry clothes can be hung up immediately and everyone can grab their clothes by the color of the hangers. My daughter

Organizing the Bathroom

This is one of the easiest rooms to organize. Clean out your linen closet and match up a wash cloth with a towel so at bath time they can grab and shower. To make changing a bed easier, instead of having to find the sheets take a set and fold it into a pillowcase that belongs in the set. No more lost sheets or pillowcases. Medicine cabinet: Throw away everything that has expired! We all neglect the medicine cabinet when it comes to organizing it. Tomorrow we will do closets!

Let's Get Organized

Thank you for stopping by, like what you see, share the page with your family & firends. Let's get this blog started... We are going to take baby steps. This is important especially if you have a mess right now. If one junk drawer turned into 10; the top of your desk is buried under files, mail, and clusters of papers, or you find yourself throwing things in your guest room when visitors are due over. So let's get started! First and foremost, start a "Tackle" box. This will have a file folder in it for each day of the month (1-31). Since we are going to be reusing the days each month, we simply need to label them by the day. The goal is to get everyone in the house to use this so that you can get done what you need to get done in a timely manner and still have the much needed and wanted time with your family & friends. Since it is summertime time, it is a great time to start this! Everything that needs to get done for work, home, school is placed under

What a day!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at our daily lives. Everyday is a blessing and I am so thankful! So today started like any other Friday. Started the day with the daily reading of the Bible, as a congregation we are ready the whole Bible in 2010. Then read our Esther Bible Study by Beth Moore for our Sunday School. Took our oldest to work and fixed breakfast when the other two got up this am. Fixed Cowboy Breakfast Pie Shredded Hashbrowns, Bacon, Eggs (Scrambled), and Cheese. Place the shredded hashbrowns on the bottom of your baking pan, scramble eggs & pour on the hashbrowns. Take cooked bacon and layer on top of the eggs. Add cheese and bake on 375 for 20 minutes. Quick, easy, & the kids love it. Even though it is summer we still have a schedule. The kids make their beds and start their chores for the day. We are keeping up with their studies by doing 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the afternoon. We had excitement after breakfast with a snake in

Summer has begun...

Today was the last day of school. The kids are excited and to be honest so am I. This means time together working in the flower beds & garden, spending some fun time together enjoying the summer. We will have a busy summer filled with activities. Church camp for the boys is right around the corner. They will be enjoying Student Life developing a closer relationship with our Savior. My prayer for them is to grow up Godly men that loves and serves the Lord with all their heart & soul. While they are gone, I do believe a shopping trip sounds like a good idea. Have a little Mother~Daughter time together. My prayer for her is to be a woman that loves the Lord. This will make her a better mother, wife, & friend. Then we have our community VBS! Before we know it June will be gone.
