Opps! I missed a day:)

So yesterday was my first missed blog!  I did my task of the junk drawer but didn't get a chance to write about it.  Our new desk was delivered yesterday evening and Bryan and I put it together.  Once that was finished, I had to go to bed so I could get up for an all day Cub Scout training today. 

The junk drawer was less exciting than I thought it would be.  It was mostly just putting items that belong in other parts of the house away.  Like tools in the garage and craft items in the basement.  It did seem like we had a vast number of locks and keys floating around.  So I took the time to match them all up and used twist ties to put the locks and keys together.  Then threw away the two locks that didn't seem to have any keys. 

And today, like I predicted, I didn't get any organizing/decluttering done.  After being gone all day, I just came home for a quiet evening with the family.  So as my first week draws to a close, I consider it a big success!  I stuck to my plan for the most part and decluttered a fair amount of stuff (mostly from above the fridge).   I also have decided that instead of waiting for the summer for our community yard sale, I will participate in the PTO yard sale the end of March.  Hopefully I will be able to sell some of this stuff I am uncovering and use the money to help buy the items I need to organize the rest of the house (i.e. bins for the pantry)!
