Funny how spring cleaning hits you more than just in the spring! I always get the ‘clean and organize’ bug in January, and again sometime in the spring. My office looks like a war zone…and it’s time to purge and organize! My goal this week is to attack the filing cabinet, the shelving unit and restore some semblance of organization!

I think that some of this bug hits after New Years because once we take down the tree and put all of the holiday decor away, everything always looks more open and spacious. I want every room to look that way….so I clean…and purge…and organize. Poor littlebigman, he hates it when this happens because that means he needs to work on his room too. LOL….Out with the old, make room for the new. TBM has been attacking the garage (slowly but surely and with minimal grumbling) It’s only fair seeing as most of the stuff in there is his anyways!

Speaking of purging, it’s always that time of year when I want to lose a few pounds! Yep, every year, and every year I do….but then at some point, it starts to creep back on and I’m back to where I started the previous year! So. 10-15 pounds is my goal….and my challenge to myself is to see if I can keep most of it off until next January….wouldn’t THAT be something!
