After spending the entire last weekend of my life working with my sister to help clean out some junk crap no longer needed personal items at my mother’s home, I have not been motivated IN.THE.LEAST to do any cleaning out of my own. This week, I feel lucky to even have gotten a couple of loads of laundry done.

Adding to the frustration of cleaning out is that my 11 1/2 month-old is crawling and walking around like crazy and p7040007.JPGgetting into everything! Not only does this make getting any meal ready a bit difficult, but I have the extra cleaning up to do behind her (because I can’t be lazy and leave it in the floor or I might end up at the ER with a broken neck!).

So, my goal to de-clutter one area in my home each week would have received a failing grade this week. I’m embarrassed to admit that I haven’t even finished my closet. I did go through and get rid of several belts from my BC era (Before Children), but I’m convinced they never really fit me anyway (at least that makes me a little happier with my post-baby body :smile: ). Hopefully I’ll make better headway this next week - perhaps I’ll go through all my vests from the ’90’s era!spice1.jpg

I did do a quick little clean-out and reorganizing in my spice cabinet. I didn’t really want to give myself credit for de-cluttering - I think I only threw away three or four items from the cabinet (and you can see I probably should have purged more)

I’ve done well not crossing my legs this week, and it has gotten much easier! I would give me an A+ on this - does that make up for not having finished my closet?
