Tackle It Day

My sister in law, Lore, does a thing called "Tackle It Tuesday". I never thought of posting the things that you do to organize your house/life for everyone to see. I usually to at least two to three things that I make sure that I get done every week to try to get organized and it give me great satisfaction once I complete it. So I decided to post one of my jobs that has been driving me NUTS for a while. For those that live close, know that we have been remodeling the bedrooms and master bath, so we have gotten into the bad habit of making a bunch of piles of stuff all over the sections of the house that we usually do not use.

I worked on the Formal Dining Room, which is right outside the master bedroom. And no, I did not just put all of the stuff into another room. I actually put all of the jackets in the entrance closet (I hung them up) and I threw aways a bunch of papers that we did not even need. WELL, here is the before pic....


and here are the after pictures..






I will figure out something for next week to do, but this weekend we are planning to do prep the backyard for a fence that we are going to install ourselves and finish painting and hanging all of the doors and windows to the bedrooms!! Wish us luck and I will try to take pictures along the way!!!!
