How did it become 2014???

As you can see, I didn't keep up with this blog last year.  I had all my hopes up that I would do it on a weekly basis!!!

I am happy to report...the stuff we did organize in 2013 is STILL ORGANIZED!!!  We did do some more work as we prepared for our city water instillation and now 2014 is MY YEAR!!!  

Here are some things I did to prepare for 2014!!!

First up is our Mail Center.  It had been up most of 2013, but was not organized.  I used a Hang-Up Organizer from Thirty-One.  As of right now, my calendar is marked with holidays, paydays, and special events.  The dry erase is used for need to make appointments and the pockets are labeled:  Menus, Pups, Sally, and Drew.  My husband has been good about sorting the mail!  Shocker!!!














Next up is the List Center.  This is where both of us can see what needs to be purchased.  Here it just shows Costco and the Market, but have since added a To-Do, as in special chores (ie Clean Kennel), and Other (ie Auto Zone-Wiper Blades).  On the wall I have a 3M hook and bought a little pail at Dollar Tree to hold dry-erase markers and erasers.

 

Last up is my rough draft of my Stove Cabinet

Reorganization.  I decided about a month ago

that I was going to take over all the cooking.  Drew

gets home late and when he was cooking we were

eating later than I'd like.  Since doing this, the 

kitchen chaos has been reduced! Less mess!!!  It 

isn't where it needs to be at this point, but a good

start!  So now I am in the process of making it

"Short Stack" friendly...as Drew says!  Drew is 6'8 

and I am only 5'2 1/4 (had to throw that in there).

This will by far be the longest part of the kitchen

reorganization!

Well that's for all for now...and I promise to try my best to keep up this year!
