This morning as I was standing at the microwave rewarming my coffee, I decided to do something. Literally. I punched in 40 seconds and instead of just standing there, I decided to do a 40 second clean up of some clutter that was left on my kitchen yesterday. At the end of 40 seconds, it was gone.

n honour of the fresh spring day we are having - NOT! I am thinking that today would be a good day to declutter with some spring freshness in mind. What is stale and boring in your house?

I have been on a mission this past week to rid the house of cat and dog hair. Sleeping on a fur blanket wasn't my idea of fun! Especially when it was supposed to be cotton!

by Jan Ferrante I found myself childless, and alone, living the simple life out on the town yesterday afternoon.

What's your project going to be this week? Hmmm, I'm not sure myself. I'm almost running out of piles! But this is were the fun comes in because after awhile you will find that the top layer of obvious stuff isn't so obvious anymore and you can get down to some deeper cleaning and take it to [...]
