Taking care of a small house with four people and a dog can become interesting. I'm going through a period of wanting to de-clutter, clean, and rearrange. I also want to repaint a lot of our rooms. All the sudden I'm feeling ambitious :)
My first task is redoing our "library". So far, I have both the old computers set up side by side on a table we bought when we started homeschooling. Above the computers I installed two very large shelves for more storage. There are many other bookshelves that I have to redo in that room but I'll get to them later.
Noelle and I made a spot on the opposite side of the room for her desk that Cindy gave her. She loves to draw and write so this gives her a spot she can leave and come back to without having to clean up. She was forever covering every horizontal space with her papers, then needing to clear it for meals or for others to use that particular spot. She is quite happy with this new set-up and so am I.
I'm in the process of cleaning out and redoing the shelves in the one large closet in my craft/sewing/reading room. This will take a while ;) Why do I save things only to throw them away a year or two later without having used them? I think I'm finding it easier to let paper things go since I can probably find it, when I do need it, on the internet.
Back to work..........

Sounds great! We did so much organizing and throwing things out this summer. It was nice to purge!
I try this once in a while, but it seems like I still accumulate more than I toss. And every time I try to organize the books... I won't even go there! ;D
