Getting Organized:
In your home and homeschool
Happy Tuesday! Many of us had cookouts last night, and our kitchen counters probably need some attention. Let’s spend 15 minutes clearing the kitchen counters, putting things away, and wiping them down. It is much easier for meal prep time if you have clean kitchen counters. I know I feel more peaceful when my kitchen counters are decluttered and cleaned off.
Zone Mission: Clear off the kitchen counters and wipe them down. .
