Out with the old, In with the new

Happy New Year!

I don't usually make resolutions, but I always have a few things in mind that I want to do in the upcoming year. This year I am doing a grateful journal, an idea I found on Pinterest (more on that in a future post!)

I also found this idea on Pinterest. I turned all of my and my husband's clothes hangers around the other way. After a year, whatever is still hanging in this direction, aka not worn, will be donated. It will be easy for me to keep track because I do all the laundry and hanging up of clothes. :)



I've also got a great start on my beginning-of-the-year-cleaning-out-crap list. I've already purged the filing cabinet and have started shredding. I cleaned out all my expired coupons to get ready to send to the troops overseas. I'm doing a craft supply exchange with my mom's group this month and have already started filling a box. This summer I hope to do a garage sale with a neighbor, so I'm collecting things from every room for the sale. I started in the master bedroom with my dresser. :)

Luckily, I love organizing and feeling organized. It drives me crazy when I can't find what I'm looking for or when items don't have a specific place. Hopefully I can keep up this organization motivation all year!
