Show Us Your Find!

I had several posts actually planned for this past week but last week my computer decided that it was old and dead... It was 7 years old so I guess it's no surprise.  So today I got my brand spankin new custom built computer in and I'm getting everything set back up.  (If you need a great deal on a computer check out Laptops for Less in Whitehouse, TX). 

I didn't want to miss my link up today with Janette for Show Us Your Find because I have something pretty cool to share!


Last Friday I was browsing around on Pinterest and came across a picture that said "Project Organize Your ENTIRE Life". 


Of course I was immediately intrigued so I pinned it and followed the link to the blog: Modern Parents Messy Kids.  Half way through this post about organization I was thinking ... "this lady is my hero". Just read the post ... you will love it.

I've been following along with this project and I'm pretty excited about joining.  I could use some structure in my day when it comes to my home.  I have a very limited window of time to try to cram EVERYTHING in.  Structure will help keep me off the couch and getting things more organized.  This weekend we have a three day weekend and I already have a list of things to get started on:
  • Getting rid of all the weeds in my flower beds.  I have done ZERO gardening this spring.
  • Finding things I don't use and sell.  I have way to much clutter that needs a new home. 
  • Narrow down a daily, weekly, and monthly schedule for cleaning.
  • List a couple of big projects that I will be working on periodically. (Clean out closets, organize our filing cabinet, etc.)
Do you have any tried and true tips that you would share to be more organized?  Will you be following along with this project?  Be warned ... these aren't quicky reading type projects.  This is some in depth stuff!!!

Head over to Janette's blog and see what else has been shared today!!

p.s. I miss Live Writer! Next thing to download!!

I have systems like this for myself. I love being organized, although I can't say I always am. :o/ I do really well at keeping the clutter down and never having anything in the house we don't use, but as far as keeping myself on a schedule to keep things clean - that's HARD! I'm hoping I'll be better about it once our house isn't always in a state of remodel! Good luck with your projects! It feels REALLY good once you start making progress!
