You know that to-do list I made last week?

Check it out now. 😀

-Go grocery shopping.

-Help S&Z organize/declutter their room.

We got this done and I feel SO much better.   I think they do too.

decluttering children's papers

-Buy birthday presents for Joshua, who turns 15 (!) a week from tomorrow.

-Finish painting Joshua’s moldings.

-Rehang photos/clock/bulletin board on Joshua’s wall.

-Figure out what to do re toy storage in Joshua’s room.

-Declutter Joshua’s bookshelf, as I’m pretty sure there are some things in there that can go.

Aand, all the decluttered books are out of the house.   Thank you, Freecycle.

-Redo chore lists.

(more about how chores work at our house.)

framed chore lists

-Buy sheets/blanket for Joshua’s bed.

-Take old electronics to local recycling center (from when we decluttered the office closet)

-Take donation items to Goodwill and Habitat Re-Store.

-Make a My Publisher photo book by Saturday.

I even got it done one day early!

-Do returns (I need to return some mail-order stuff to 3 different companies.)

Yup.

Somehow, I got my whole list done.

Really, I’m kind of shocked because I thought this was kind of ambitious.

I think part of what helped me is the fact that I shared my to-do list with all of you.   So, thanks!

OMGoodness! That is most impressive, considering all the daily tasks just to keep a family running! I'm sure the children feel much better as well, having their rooms decluttered, organized, and updated.

You are a wonderful role model, not just for your children, but for everyone who reads your blog. Thank you for sharing.

So true, isn't it? Keeping the household fed and in clean clothes and such does take a lot of time!

Thank you for your kind words. :)

Nicely done! Nothing feels quite like the pat on the back we get to give ourselves after completing a to-do list ... and especially an ambitious to-do list!
