8th Idea for Organization/Inspiration

Schedule a day off from work.

This was very last minute. At a little after 5pm on Thursday I asked if I could have Friday off. After getting a little 'tude I was able to get the day off.

Its 6pm on my day off & I did exactly what I needed to...housework! Yes, I scheduled a day off to do housework! How absolutely ridiculous is that!&%!

Lately, I have been VERY lazy & unmotivated to clean my house...so for the past 2-3 weeks I have been making due. So it was due time for an overhaul. & boy is my energy level running REALLY low now. I actually feel like taking a nap.

But I have a cleaner house, cleaned out my closet, washed the car, did a little out in the yard, ran errands, & checked the mail...which I had not for a week! (Luz, I know that is unimaginable to you! LOL!!)

It was a beautiful day out & I did get to spend it with my babies so that made it even better.
Happy Organizing & Inspiring!!

7th Idea for Organization

Check oil in your car.

Well, I did a little better than that. I had my oil changed, fluids checks, & tires too. Plus, then I gave, as the guy at the car place, said "vitamins for my car". I put this fuel injector cleaning fluid in my tank.
I'm planning a day trip on Saturday & have more peace of mind if I have my car looked at before going.
Happy Organizing!

6th Idea for Organization/Inspiration

Try one new food.

Some friends and I got together for dinner n' drinks. We ate at Cabo Tropical Grille. I decided to try a new dish (actually I've never eaten there before).

Tacos Marineros
2 grilled corn tortillas filled with your choice of seasoned shrimp or
white fish fillet with lettuce & tomatoes.
Served with rice, charro beans, & mango pico de gallo.

YUMMY!!!! It was delicious!! I had one of each. I am not a "fish" taco girl - normally chicken fajitas, but I may have a new fav!!
Happy Inspiration!!

PS...Sorry for missing a couple of days! But I am Baaaaack!! :)

5th Idea for Organization

Toss all the liquor bottles that are less than 1/8th full.

Hmmmmmmm....this I have to say was the easiest one so far.
Uh, I have only 3 bottles in my house and neither are near getting that low. & believe me if they were I would take care of that!! - like our mothers always yelled "who put the milk back in the refrig when there is only a swallow left!!"
Hate for that GOOD stuff to go to waste!! LOL!!!

4th Idea for Organization

Take digital photos of the valuables in 1 room for insurance purposes.

This was actually something I really did need to do.
It was SUPER quick & easy - yes!! As tonight I almost overlooked doing my idea!!
I hope to finish taking pics of all the other stuff by this weekend. I think I should have plenty of time to do it. :)
Sorry, so short but its getting late & this girl needs her beauty rest! Ciao!
Happy Organizing & Inspiring!!

3rd Idea for Organization

3rd Idea: Empty e-mail in box.

I thought this would be an easy task...be done & then on my way to other things I need to do.
Uh...my computer had other ideas...that prevented my organization!! LOL!
I had 105 messages in my in box. No big deal to clean out & either delete of file away. Well, folks it took me almost 1 WHOLE STINKIN' HOUR to clean out 103 e-mails!! What the $%*#!!!

My computer really was testing my patience today.

So....not only did I accomplish #3 but I have now added "getting a new computer" to Idea #19!!!
HAH!! take that you old computer!!

***(Okay, I know I better play nice nice until I actually have the new computer, b/c this guy may test my patience even more! (Sorry - Nice Computer!))

Happy Organizing!!!

2nd Idea to Organization

Speed clean 1 drawer - have one box for trash & one to donate

When I saw this idea immediately you think of the all dreaded "JUNK DRAWER"!!
ekkkkkkkk!!!
Then I thought which drawer should I clean out that may actually do me some good for organization? Ahhhh....the bra & panty drawer!!!

Well, I cleaned it out & organized it. Unfortunately, I did not get rid of any bras. Do not have many to begin with! But my trash box did have some panties!! Don't really think that panties are an item that you should donate!?!? Ewwww....

:) Hope you all had a GREAT day & Happy Organizing!!
