Decrapify '11

I apologize for my lack of actual blogging as of late.  Most of my blogs have been photo blogs with little to no substance.

Things have been hectic in our house.  Penelope is teething and extremely grouchy, Greg + Finley have been sick and I decided to decrapify my house.  I thought I could have it done in a day, maybe 2.  Turns out I was wrong.

I have managed to decrapify my linen closet which is now amazingly orderly, all towels folded and the door can shut without propping all my weight against it!  Our bedroom + Finley's bedroom has been decrapified as well as our pantry in the kitchen.  I have managed to sell some stuff on Kijiji which makes me happy but I think most will go to the goodwill.  

Tomorrow my plan is to finish my bathroom, Finley's bathroom, Penelope's bedroom and possibly my bench storage thingy which is full with a ridiculous amount of toques, mittens + scarves that I haven't wore in gosh knows how long.  It's a stretch to get all of that done plus the laundry, regular cleaning and other things that need to get done on a daily basis.  I also want to decrapify the bonus room and last but  not least the basement.  The basement is where most of the crap that I have been decrapifying has been going.  I have big plans for our basement, I just need to get Greg on board!  The fact that the weather has been too cold to take the kids out has helped in me getting a bunch of it done!

I went to purchase some baskets to store neatly in my bathroom and I am very excited to try them out.  I am hoping that will help me keep my bathroom cupboards cleaner for much longer.  

I also came across the diy website that has crafts and such on it.  I bought a white lack end table off of kijiji for $4 that I am going to make into a cool bedside table for Finley's room.  I just need to find the right scrapbook paper for the project.  I will post photos of that when I get it done.  Based on my to-do list, it could be awhile.

I also did a Standing Core session with Bikini Boot Camp on Sunday morning.  It was awesome and I realized how much I missed it.  I did it for about 4 months before I had Finley and was literally in the best shape of my life.  I hope to get back there soon!  I can't wait for the Standing Core Strength class!

Anyways not much else is going on but will let you know when I manage to finish Decrapify '11......
