Now that I've taken a year to really concentrate on the joys in my everyday life(which I am going to continue doing), I want to think about getting organized. So, the next few blogs will be about how I'm getting organized. I've always though I was fairly organized, but when I got sick, then Mark had his stroke, I realized I wasn't necessarily organized in the places I needed to be organized in.
Starting really small, on Sunday December 31st, I was going to go grocery shopping for the week. I had our meals planned, and a list in hand ready to go. Mark said to me "Hey, let's re-organize the pantry before you go grocery shopping, it's a bit of a mess." It was a great idea. We took everything out of the pantry, and lined it up on the kitchen cabinets and table, re-organized it, and put it back. BOY DID I FIND A LOT! So much, that I didn't go grocery shopping and we are trying to eat from what we have for a week or two? I needed milk and butter, so we got that today, but Eat from the Pantry is underway!
Sunday 12/31- I had beef stew planned, so made that
Monday 1/1- My mom invited us over (Yea MOM!)
Tuesday- I had been to a Tastefully Simple Party and had a Potato Cheese soup mix(which I added leftover ham), and Bountiful Beer Bread
Stay tuned for the rest of the Pantry clean out!!!
Organizing is great!
