And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up. Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders. Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
Deuteronomy 6:5-9

My Quest For Organization Continues..

Since Livy went to MDO today, I thought I would tackle a project that I have been meaning to do for a week, but have been procrastinating until today. I cleaned out my pantry, YAHOO! It was a mess! The shelves were soooooo dusty and everything was just nasty. Couldn't take it anymore!! We even had some empty containers (don't ask me why they were still there) and some stale things in our pantry. I took everything down off of the shelves and cleaned them with bleach. You know you have been using too much bleach when you get lightheaded so I opened some windows. Even our cat Twix was beginning to act funny. (who needs catnip..just use bleach!) The kitchen was a wreck! Here's the progress. Caution..it's not pretty!


YIKES!







The finished product!!!!
I'm proud of my shelves.


Pretty.


I thought I looked so good that I should blog it. It was about a two hour effort but totally worth it. Try it. It will make you feel good!

P.S. My sink is still shiny! :)

Wow you've been busy. I like the flylady's ideas. Your house has always been so much cleaner than ours. I'm hoping when we move I can get on the super-clean organized track too. Great Job!
