There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza.

This week in Relief Society we had an amazing lady come and teach us about getting organized.( Click HERE http://annban10.blogspot.com/ to see her blog)

It was amazing, fantastic, motivating, informative, and a little over whelming. I love to PRETEND I am organized, but really it is my sister Jennifer who is the organizer in our family. I just shove things in places so most people can't see it :) I usually  am OK with that. But after this fun night of ways to get organized I became energized and ready to De-junk my house. 

So what happened? I started in the kitchen and began to go through things. That's when the song of Dear Liza started to hit home...I found something that went in the bathroom. I went to put it away and saw 2 things that went in the girls room. I took those to the girls room and saw the garbage needed to be dumped. I did that then figured I would just empty the other garbage cans. Then noticed some socks and shoes in the living room, so I took those down to the Mr.A's room, when I saw some pens and pencils that went in the kitchen...where I was reminded (with all the open cupboards) that I was De-junking. 

To get organized and clutter free would be a dream...lets just say, "I'm working on it", and as I work I will be singing the song "There's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza."

But seriously go check out her blog, on the side bar she has a whole section about getting organized. She was GREAT!

I'm glad you liked it! I need to work up the courage to tackle my storage room(s).
