Whirlwind!

Today I decided to tackle the clutter around the house. And tackle I did!
Moved around some magazines, did a bunch of laundry and dishes that piled up over the weekend (picnic at the house). I also went through all the junk mail, catalogs and miscellaneous mailings in the downstairs enough to recycle, shred and file the important stuff. The mega task was the ominous seven plastic sterilite drawers that continuously block my scrap area. Four are empty with contents put in better places. One has miscellaneous arts and craft supplies, but located under a table in stealth. The other two that remained are now in the basement with miscellaneous yet organized school supplies that need not occupy space in the upstairs. I still have much more to go - but I am loving this organizational kick. Last week I tackled parts of the bedroom - and that still needs more work too. But these dents are very visible. Can't wait to see the finished product. Goal date - mainly end of the week - I want to get some serious crafting done on the long weekend! :)

Overhaul

What an overhaul weekend. Finally committed to eating healthy and vegetarian - and I haven't really had any breaks (ok the pepsi on saturday was bad- but the vegetarian thing has been working for over a month now!)
I am also in the process of overhauling the house. Nothing crazy - just trying to make the space less cluttered and more welcoming. And workable. I have a fantastic space for crafting that rarely gets used. Bah.
To finish up, here are my wonderful random things of the weekend -
Bearitos refried beans, organic curried cashews, and local organic-multi-colored cherry tomatoes!
