Getting Organized:
In your home and homeschool
Happy Friday! Once a week, I clean out my refrigerator. This usually coincides with trash day and grocery shopping day on Friday. Sometimes I will do it on Thursday evening. But I do it weekly to keep things fresh and tidy in there. If it is cleaned out regularly, you know what you have on hand. You also get rid of things before they become science experiments. With growing boys in my house, I do not have as many leftovers as I have had in years past. But I still have things in there that sit too long and need to go. I want you to clean your refrigerator out one shelf at a time. You might have to do this over the course of a few days if it has been a while since you cleaned it out. Start with the top shelf, and then work your way down. Wipe one shelf at a time as you go along. Do not take everything out at once. I do not want you doing this mission for an hour.
Have a great week-end!
If you have any questions or tips, please email me. I enjoy hearing from my readers.
