| I watch that hoartding show too and boy does it get me going. After watching that show I just get myself into a cleaning frenzy and go wild in the house. It's a good insentive to get one moving. I really have to get going on my craft closet tho - time to do some sorting out. |

I have been tossing in a load of laundry before I go to bed, then popping it into the dryer in the morning. I also set all dishes, pans, etc to soak right after use. Then before I go to bed, I rinse and fill the dishwasher and wash what is left like pots and pans. That way I start the day with a empty sink. Then I put away what is in the dishwasher (if there was enough to run it, I will only run it full) put away the pots and pans that air dried overnight, and put the load in the dryer in the morning. My kitchen is so much better this way. I fill the pots and pans with water right on the stove with a bit of dishwashing soap. Then I just have to give it a quick wash after it has soaked. It has saved my sanity.

Got to my craft closet - twice. OMG - can't believe the stuff I found that I had completly forgotten about. Into the donate pile it went. Rearranged my containers and got rid of two totes. For some reason I felt the best after I got this closet done compaired to the other areas of the house. Good thing I have a large back end to my car - I have a lot of bags and boxes to donate to Goodwill this next week. Then I can hit the spareroom closet and start all over again. Yippy!!!
Keep the good work going ladies. |

| I'm doing a room by room sweep, did the kitchen already. I have a one year rule; use it, repurpose it or give it to someone who can. Doing this every year really helps cut clutter, and it's a great time to clean in all those dark corners too! |

| I belong to a yahoo group called House_Proud. It is a small group of woman that email the group daily or so, with our TA DA lists! It is so nice to post those, and read everyone else's. I like reading what my friends are doing. We do a lot of encouraging and reminding. There is a 12 week rotation for cleaning. Some of us follow. It is the TA DA's that we love and the small group atmosphere. Come check us out. |

I have jumped in with both feet! We are getting the house ready to sell and we are (obviously) moving. We have filled up the back of our Excursion several times. Also sold my sons bearded dragon and fifty gallon tank. Have one more tank to unload. Have a car up for sale and repainting several rooms this week. Also still have to re-floor three rooms (dreading).

| I can now walk into my spare bedroom!! Haven't been able to do that since last summer. Getting time to shift clothes around - winter to storage and down with the summer stuff. Going to start orange oiling all my doors, cupboards and baseboards, deep cleaning my tile and grout in the kitchen and bathroom and dusting off my walls which are T&G and the dust collects on the grooves just horribly. Then it's onto power washing the deck and porch and washing the outside furniture that DH brought up last week. We're on a roll. |
