What are your organising goals for April?

 

So, it’s 1 April but this is not an April Fool’s joke 🙂
I want to know what your organising and time goals are for the month.

 

I’ll go first. Mine are

1) enjoy a lovely holiday – we’re going away for 4 days this month – so quite a bit of packing to do


2) get this blog redesigned – it’s about time, isn’t it?
3) declutter and organise the kids’ clothes as we go into the colder weather
4) get chest of drawers and other dresser painted (I’m going olive green for the one and turquoise for the other)

 

Last month I didn’t get the filing done but I did declutter their toys.

Sometimes you just have to ask youself, “what’s driving me more crazy right this minute?” 🙂

 

So, what are your organising goals this month?

 

PS I’m also going to blog every day this month. So I need some ideas – what questions would you like me to answer? Ask in the comments and I’ll pepper my answers throughout the month. And don’t forget to send me your inspiring space, or the link if you see some gorgeous spaces while you’re blog-hopping.

What are your organising goals for March?

I like to think of a few small things I want to do around the house every month.

I thought it would inspire and motivate you to also think up a few things and tackle one small task every weekend.

Let’s hold each other accountable and do this together.

For March my tasks are mostly photo-related:

  1. Print 12 pics of Connor and 12 of Kendra for their first year frames (yip, 8 months later :))
  2. Do the “Dion and Marcia” wall of photos in the passage outside our bedroom.
  3. Decide where “friends” wall will be and start planning configuration
  4. Two months’ filing

What are your 4 organising to-dos for March?

A slight cheat on my organising goals

Remember the 4 organising goals for February?

Well, I always say start with the area that’s driving you nuts and when I looked at my kitchen counter one too many times last weekend, I had an aha moment.

The babies’ bottles and sippy cups have got to go.

I am reclaiming my counter space.

So this is what I did on the weekend.

First, the entire two shelves were full of plastic containers, also driving me nuts so I went wild and threw half of them away.

Actually, I threw them into the Pampers box.

That then created space – a whole shelf – for the baby things to all be in one space instead of mixed in with my other stuff.

I had that blue basket available so I used it like a tray – it is now easy to pull in and out without disrupting all the things in the front or back.

The big green ice bucket is recycled (we got baby gifts in it – stuffed animals and whatnot when the babies were born) and we now store sippy cups and bottles in it.

I am MUCH happier with my neater cupboard and best of all, I now have more counter space.

How are you getting on with your 4 organising tasks for February?
