Weather Got You Trapped?

Weather have you trapped indoors? Take this time to ORGANIZE!!! Think about the spaces that may be out of sight and out of mind that need your attention...here's a quick list of some things that may have not gotten your attention lately:

Medicine Cabinet (throw out out of date meds)
Behind Washer/Dryer (vaccuum, pick up hangers and items that have fallen)
Junk Drawer (we all have one...clean it out!)
File Cabinet (how long have you kept paperwork...consolidate)
Closet (out of style, date or doesn't fit...donate!)
Kitchen Sink (organize your cleaning supplies)
Bathroom Sink (combine like soaps, through out empty bottles)
Hall Closet (extra blankets? Great time to donate blankets to those in need!)
Fridge (throw out outdated food and wipe down inside)

For the over achievers...
1. Go through pens and markers and throw out what doesn't work
2. Mend clothes missing buttons, sew up holes or sew on patches
3. Organize pantry with labels facing out for easy finding
4. Tilt couches over and grab the change, socks etc
5. Go through sock drawer rid of socks with out pairs!!!

This should keep you busy for a while...it will make you feel better, refreshed and less cluttered! What a great head start on SPRING CLEANING!
