Getting Organized:
In your home and homeschool
Do you enjoy your early morning quiet time? It is a time of the day that I treasure. One thing that helps me enjoy this time is by having my home clean and decluttered. I know you want this, too. If you spend just 15 minutes a day decluttering, you will bring peace to your home. By blessing your home with less clutter, you are blessing yourself and your family. Pick one area in your home today to declutter. Spend just 15 minutes doing this. Don’t start a big project. On Friday, we take off our trash, so I do a quick paper declutter on Fridays. I do my best to declutter paper as it comes into the house, but we all have paper that is already in our homes. For the rest of the month, really work at getting rid of as much paper clutter as you can. This will help you get ready for the start of the school year.
Have a great week-end!
If you have any questions or tips, please email me. I enjoy hearing from my readers.
Zone Mission: Declutter anywhere in the house for 15 minutes.
Menu Mission: My menu plan for today is Rotisserie Chicken because it’s grocery shopping day. I will serve it with a salad and fresh veggies.
