Decluttering and Organizing

New years goal #2 is to declutter and organize!
I have a list or areas I have been meaning to get to for 
quick a while and just haven't.
My Target areas are 
Jordan's room
Michelle's clothes
Top hall closet
toy closet under the stairs
above the washer and dryer
under the island in the kitchen
my corner cupboard that holds my Tupperware 
and the big one 
the garage!

Today I tackled Jordan's room because
 I knew it would be the most easy one.
He has a ton of stuff between his angry bird collection,
garbage trucks, cans and his "garbage",
and a ton of small toys that are always 
covering his floor.

A few before pictures



It took about an hour and it looked like this!



I got this nice large, wide drawer storage thing at Wal-mart yesterday 
with his angry birds in mind. They all fit nicely plus he has a 
toy treasure drawer. A drawer for all his little collectibles or toys 
that don't really have a home.


It feels good to tackle one area on the list.
I plan to do the toy closet next which has become
a dumping/hiding area.  My mom also gave us a tub and box
of legos which Jordan loves but they weren't working with the space.
I sorted through them today and they are now organized in
another drawer organizer thing.


It was a long process but worth it.
Jordan had fun discovering different pieces I came across


Tomorrow is ten on ten!!!
This is where I take pictures every hour for ten hours.
You are supposed to take one but I usually end up with more.
It is a fun way to get a day in the life in pictures!

I will do a getting fit! getting healthy! update on Monday.
That will the end of the first official week.
Hopefully I will see something positive on the scale!
