Hey everyone,
l have not be on the site in a long time. But I have started to work on my home to get it more organized. I am following a group on Facebook. Each day a 15min mission is posted. I started it on Jan 1st and so far it has been going great. I'm still working on getting a binder together for my home, penpaling and a few other things. I really want to make things better around my home. I look forward to reading more post from each of you.
Love & Hugs

Hi Debbie! Glad you joined us on this thread! Having an organized home makes all the difference in my life...it's easy living! I am loving the journey! What projects are you doing in 15 minutes?~Butterflyrose~
P.S. I have a pen pal junk journal and a future project is to complete my home management binder. Presently, I've started a "My Life" junk journal.

I finished my bedroom except for the sweeping and scrubbing the main carpet. I did the carpet in the closet. I have one medium box of clothes and a medium box of other things that will go in a yard sale. I also tossed some clothes that had a lot of stains on them or were pretty worn. Room looks very nice now. When spring comes I am going to try and redo one of the dressers and my cedar chest. I want to to them outside so that the stain aroma won't be in the house.

Well, I got sidetracked on the inside doors for now. Decided to repaint the inside of the front door and since it is not wood, will take a couple of coats of paint. Unfortunately, that will now wait till during the week since I have a couple of other things going. I did get one coat of paint on it though.
Have to concentrate on some paperwork, then will get back into the swing of things.

Hey Winnie,
It is great to see you again. I have missed everyone. Hope that you have been doing good. How is your sister doing? I am feeling good about getting my home more organized this year. The group I am following on Facebook we started in the kitchen and I felt so good about what all I got organizein the last two weeks that I got me some new curtains for the kitchen. I also got a new dish mat too. I have tried before to get organized but never stayed with it. I am working hard to stay with it this time. We do a new 15 min mission everyday but on a few the missions I didn't do are declutting place mats, table cloths and napkin rings. I don't use them so that mission I worked on something else that will take longer then 15 mins to declutter. Plus when I read what others are doing I have learned some new ideas.
Well I am going to close for now, I have a few things I need to get done.
Love & Hugs

Hey Beverly,
The group I am in some of our daily missions have been to declutter or counter tops, drawers, and next week will be our cabinets. I love it cause its 15 mins at a time. I have a few areas that will take longer then 15 mins but on the days where the missions are on things I don't have then I'll work on the areas that takes longer to declutter. I am enjoying it.
Hope have you been?
Love & Hugs
