Finishing 2011 with a neat home?
I am feeling rather motivated these days. Thats a good thing since I haven't felt motivated in a long time. A bit over a year ago I made a list of all the things I wanted to get done to turn my house into a the home that best fits our family. Remember how FlyLady suggests walking through our home pretending we are a real-estate person making a list of things that need to worked on? Thats basically what I did, except I went further and looked inside each drawer, cupboard, etc.
The list still exists, but it is somewhat overwhelming... it has well over 100 items in it.
So I am trying a different approach, each day I am going walk around our house and select 1 thing to work on. Take a picture of before and after. I'll declutter, tidy and/or clean as needed.
I'll just keep doing this until all that is left to do is some of my long neglected craft projects (most of these will probably get decluttered too).
I probably have far more to do than can be done until the end of the year... but whatever I get done will probably make a huge difference to our home.
Would anyone like to join me?
