This post is pretty much completely unrelated to gardening, but it is what I have been doing over this long and snowy winter here in MN!
I found this cool website in September called FLY Lady, http://wwwflylady.com
It’s a site that walks you by the hand through getting rid of clutter and leaves you with an amazing way of keeping your house nice and clutter free! So I dug in and I am almost done de-cluttering the entire house. I have re-modeled several rooms in the house, and even got a small “bagster” (it’s kind of like a dumpster) to throw all the garbage and unnecessary stuff away. I have also made several trips to the thrift store near by to drop off donations of all sorts!
I have re-modeled the upstairs bathroom, the downstairs office, and the junk room is now a beautiful princess bedroom for my daughter. Every closet is cleaned out, my storage area under the stairs is cleaned out, stocked up with nice labeled bins. I also cleaned out a space in my garage and bought nice plastic shelving for them and it is all stocked up with nice labeled bins as well.
Here are the pictures!
