I took the kids on an incredible hill - to enjoy the .5 inches of snow. It still rocked. Colson has a scraped up face, Hallie, a scraped up hand, and Laila, a bloody nose. Charlie couldn't 'put her arms down' so she was good. The 2 friends that came with us escaped injury free. Thank Goodness.
I've spent this month decluttering. My dream was to have it done quickly and efficiently that eventually my whole house would look fabulous with everything in its place. Yeah. A dream. Instead I have a garage FULL of crap to get rid of. Still have 'random' projects, drawers, closets, and rooms that I haven't yet made it too. And well, where I started is a mess again, too.
No School today. And a surprise Play Date equals a quiet house were I mastered my inbox. Which is always full of bills to pay, things to do, papers to file, and other various information. It's Cleaned Out, and that feels good.
Overall, a good day.

Decluttering takes baby steps. I have finally gotten to the point that if I haven't thought of it or looked at it in a year....GONE! If I need it again someday I will buy it again in a better updated model I'm sure. After buying a house that just barely fit us and then adding two more people to our family. I found that "Stuff" can seriously give you feelings of suffication, entrapment and robs you of motivation. Um...no thanks! I keep my expectations for myself low and consider it a good day if I accomplish one task that is outside my daily duties. It may sound pathetic but it works for me. For example: I wanted my fridge cleaned out and washed. The tasked seemed as big as cleaning out the garage. But when I told myself "you only have to do one shelf" the task seemed so much smaller. And the first day that's all I did. The next day I started on one more shelf...but this time my motivation was sparked and I was able to finish completely in a pretty short amount of time.
It's nice to have some days where you get something done, right? Love the sledding photo, and I'm glad you're blogging!
