31 Day Organizational Challenge - Days 14 - 15

Wow,  yesterday was so busy that I completely forgot about the challenge until after dinner and by then it was just too late.  I'm going to call that and oops day.

I'm going to spend the next few days preparing for an upcoming crop.  So I wanted my challenges to be fast and easy for the weekend.  Here's what I've come up with...next Tuesday is the day to clean and organize the linen closet and I keep a lot more than linens in mine, so I need some organizational supplies for the other stuff, so that is the challenge for today to determine what I need and get it. 

Along those same lines I have a drawer or two or three in my kitchen which is also in need of organizational supplies so that is my challenge for tomorrow is to decide what is needed and purchase it.

31 Day Organizational Challenge – Day 12

Today's challenge is to clean out the junk drawer.  Mine wasn't in too bad of shape.  Here is the before photo:

I took everything out, wiped out the drawer, cleaned out and organized the drawer organizer & the take out menu organizer, and put almost everything back in it's original spot.  I was able to find a location for the push pins in the drawer organizer so I was able to get rid of the box for that and I relocated the mouse.  We don't need him in the kitchen any longer.

Here is the after photo:

I realize there isn't much difference but I needed an easy day.

31 Day Organizational Challenge – Day 9

I’ve reached that age where I need contacts and reading glasses.  But, I haven’t figured out exactly how to shop for reading glasses, mostly because I haven’t really tried, but the day is approaching quickly.  Anyway, over the weekend I optimized my computer’s visual display – In other words I made computer “large print.”  In doing so, I also made the need to clean off my computer desktop more immediate.  Although, I no longer have to squint to read the icons on the screen, I have so many (unnecessary) ones on there, several of them are now stacked on top of each other.  So, today’s challenge is to clean & organize the computer desktop.
