I’m so sorry that this is late. In all of the drama that has started happening since my grandma’s death, I just didn’t get this posted yesterday. I do hope you can forgive me. These last few days have been really hard on me and I’m trying hard to make sure I do what needs to be done.<\/p>\n

In the spirit of keep on keeping on, I bring you this week’s challenge. This week, we’re back in our bedrooms We’re going to open up that top drawer and we’re going to get rid of anything that we don’t love or that doesn’t fit. For me, this is my underclothes drawer and I can guarantee that some purging is going to get done. I swear I have bras in there that haven’t fit since I started having kids! Here’s a peek into what I mean:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Aren’t slipper socks sexy?<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\nI’m looking forward to being able to reach into that drawer and actually find what I want. Right now, it’s dig around in the hopes it’s in there. Not conducive to stress free living, I tell ya!<\/p>\n

Speaking of stress (I’m the queen of transitions today!), I do have to say that having these yay locations in my home has really helped over the past few days. Granted, most of my house looks like a tornado hit it, but being able to walk into any room and see a space that’s clean and tidy has helped calm down the chaos in my brain.  It even works in last week’s challenge…the laundry shelf…<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Everything in its place!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

It’s so nice to be able to walk into the laundry room and just throw in a load of laundry without digging around for where I put anything that I might need. Plus, my kids were super excited when I found this:<\/p>\n

\nYep, that’s an entire container of batteries. This used to be our battery jar but somehow the lid got misplaced and I must have put the jar up on the shelf until I found the lid. Well, I haven’t found the lid, but I did move this container out to the shelf that holds all of the Wii supplies and the kids now have an ample supply of batteries to run their remotes for a while. That’s almost as good as finding cash, folks!<\/p>\n
