Clearing out some clutter, cleaning

Been working on the clearing out some of our closet clutter this week. Reorganizing them so they function. LOL! I had some closets that attacked when you opened them. ;) It's weird to find things you forgot you had, and of course say "oh that's where it been all this time." Then again you find so much stuff you don't even need at all. Moving toward living more simply, cleaning out closets is a great thing. I've been taking small steps over the past several years to let go of things. What I'm parting with today, just a year ago I still thought I needed or wanted. And probably in all honesty I didn't need it last year either. But I think everything has a season, and this is a season letting go again.

Also cleaned my oven and gave the dishwasher a good going over. My dishwasher I think is on it's last legs. Hopefully I'll be able to get another one when this finally does go bad. Never been a big hand washing fan, not very efficient either. I seriously believe I use less water with the dishwasher than hand washing, mainly because constantly want to change to new clean water. LOL! Diehard dishwasher fan, and not going to change. :)

After I attack my hall closet, I'm heading to the kitchen cabinets (to clean, reorganize, and inventory), and laundry closet to dust down shelves and clean up the washer and dryer (behind, beneath also).

My main reason for wanting to get to the Kitchen is I want to inventory everything. With the possiblity of my husband being laid off I want to see what we have and figure out what I'd like to stock up on. Also try my hand at some menu planning, something I have not mastered yet. I know I over buy at the store because of this very thing. Ack I don't even know what I have!! LOL! Goes back to those closets that attack, my kitchen cabinets do that to!!!

Well back to work I go. Have a Blessed day all.
