Early Spring Cleaning

Wow! Two posts in one day, amazing! I have been thinking all day about a plan to get a handle on my house. When I say get a handle on it, I mean the house is completely out of control! The kids stuff is every where. The house has never been organized from the day we began unpacking boxes nine years ago and it is finally to the point that it is causing me to go out of my mind! I am not sure where to start but at least I am able to tackle the laundry again! While, I have about ten loads lying around I will have to start cleaning. My goal is to tack one "thing" each day throughout the spring season. I am starting now because I can't wait until later this month. To hold myself accountable, I will post my organization/cleaning activity of the day right here on my blog.

The first activity will be the older boy's room. This may take a couple of days because of work/afterschool activities and H.W. There are two bookshelves in there that are absolutely overflowing! There are currently Legos all over the floor which I will some how attempt to get in one storage bin. Hopefully, I will be able to tell the difference between the Legos and Playmobil and each can have their own bin. Truthfully, as I think about it and begin to list it all it seems like it will take me all week and possibly through the weekend to really get through it all properly. I guess I will post my next organization/cleaning activity when I complete the boys room. My fear is that I will get off track and start another task before I finish this one. My husband would probably bet on that! He says I am ADD. There might be something to that. Hmm... Notice there is no H in there! There is no hyper for me if anything it is quite the opposite which is why I don't seem to get anything done! Hmm...
