Time for some spring cleaning

This weekend I have been in the mood to organize all those areas of my life that just seem to get cluttered. Last night I reorganized my pantry. After a recent trip to the grocery store, I realized there was too much clutter in the pantry to put away all the food. I feel so much better now that it's all organized again...thanks to my friend Shannon who hooked me up with all those Tupperware containers years ago.

Then today I finished organizing all the files in my computer so they are all sorted by category. Normally I don't have the patience to sit and sort through all my files, but after awhile it just gets too disorganized. Anyway, I felt like doing some mindless work and now it feels good to know where everything is. I think it has been a few years since I have really gone through and "put things away." Even though it's only a computer, it feels like a weight has been lifted... almost like cleaning a room in the house. As you see on the screen capture, I have all my files in order...hooray!

Tomorrow I think I will tackle organizing all the kids clothes. This is a big chore as I have to sort everything and weed out all the clothes the kids have out grown. I have several large bins of hand-me-downs that Hayden should fit into by now that I need to sort through...then I need to make up some boxes of out-grown clothes for consignment. I've also got a couple bins of clothes that used to fit me that I 'm hoping to be wearing again soon. Maybe I should sort those out too as I'm sure some of the styles are better off at Goodwill...Wish me luck.
