Hi and good morning!
As I go about getting more organized, I have learned something. It's pretty common but still effective.
I do better with a list.
I do much better with a list with check marks.
I also do really well when things have containers.
I do amazingly well with things have containers that are labeled!

If things have a place, a truly designated place, I put it back there. I don't put things that don't belong there. It makes things easier. It is WONDERFUL! :0)

SO, my newest project is one I made last night. I'm not sure that I'll use it this week though because it's not completely finished.
I saw this idea at another blog and fell in love with hers (and therefore made my own just like hers!)
(as soon as I can find her blog again, I promise to post it!)

Here are mine:





I would show you the one for each day but some of them are still png format. These are the ones that are already jpg. :0)

I want to laminate these so I can mark on them each day but then clean it off. I am going to attach them all together with a metal ring and hang them on my refrigerator.
:0)

wish me luck!

Hi! I hope this post finds you happy and healthy. :0)

I am getting motivated.
Motivated to clean, create, and organize.
I have been doing a LOT of organizing in my home this past month. A lot. And I'm lovin' it!
I am also getting craftier than ever!
There are SOOOO many wonderful blogs "out there" with amazing craft ideas! I'm having a blast!
I have also taken a big step...a big step in my world. I am making the switch to PSE for scrapbooking. I started to scrap digitally about 5 years ago but have always used Microsoft Digital Image Suite. I love it. I love it completely. I have had PSE for 2 years, sitting in its box waiting for me to take the plunge. I've always been pretty scared about it. BUT with a great friend of mine, we took that step last week. She has since then been going nuts and learning all sorts of things, I haven't opened my laptop since. BUT I will. I am no longer scared.
I am also cooking new things. I REALLY enjoy it...but...well the mess doesn't usually seem worth it. I despise cleaning my kitchen. It's a never ending battle and it takes away the joy of cooking. I will continue to cook though (and continue to hate cleaning!)

:0)
SO...wanna try some things with me?
I challenge you to get motivated!
I challenge you to step out of your box and try something new.
I am!

I am going to try something new EVERY week...whether it is a way of crafting I have never done or a dish I would normally never consider (I never even really look at multi-cultural recipes!). I'm in! Are you?

Mine for the upcoming week are:
an asian-inspired recipe for the crock pot
AND
glass "etching" using my silhouette and etching cream

Should be interesting!

Have a great day!
