    Default Weekend Clean-Up

    Okay, ladies. Let's do it again. Remember last weekend when we took a small bag around our homes and filled it with trash that had accumulated over the weekend? Well, it's time again.

    Before you go to bed tonight, I want to you get that small bag, move through your home, fill it up, and take it out to the trash. Let's start the week with less than we finished the last one.

    Already done, and it was a WHOLE bag full of trash. Cleaned out the drawers in the dry sink, the drawers in the china hutch, and around the computer (all in the family room.)

    I decluttered and organized the office closet, the hall closet, and Gabe did the car. We got at least 3 garbage bags full of junk out of here. The office doesn't look like a used computer store anymore either.

    I cleaned off my desk, had a whole bag of recycling and another bag of garbage. Cleaned out the drawers of all of 2005, made new folders for 2006, all my filing is up to date and I'm now working on my budget and cash flow. Seems most of my bills are due at the end of the month. I'm going to call the cc company and see if I can't move it up a week or so...

    I'm late checking in and I'll be late getting this done. DH was home for the weekend, so I will start Tuesday morning after I take him to work.
