Did you find your small "trouble" spot yesterday? It took me about 15 minutes to clean and declutter my kitchen drawer this morning. One thing I noticed as I cleaned out the drawer was the large amount of tiny bits of yuck gathering in the corners. As you declutter that drawer, bookshelf, cabinet, basket, or toy box don't forget to give it a good cleaning before you put items back inside. ...
Clean Home, Fresh Start: Find a Trouble Spot
I believe that cleaning and organization are more psychological than physical. Many times we get so overwhelmed with the number of simple tasks we need to do each day that we give up on them all.

Exactly four things left my home and some of them were things I was returning: a piano music stand, homeschool curriculum I mailed to a friend, and shoes and a phone charger I borrowed from my sister- in-law. I ...
Reusing Crib Mattress Protectors
I am sure anyone that has had a baby has at least one crib mattress protector. Somehow (although I am guessing it has a lot to do with the fact that I have had seven babies) I ended up with several of these mattress protectors.
