NOW THAT'S A LOAD!






If you're anything like me, things get shoved into spaces until I "have time to get to it." Yesterday was my day off and I decided to get some things done around the house. Things that I normally wouldn't do but serve as hindrances in my day-to-day routine. Not to mention everyone else living in my household!

I spent the better portion of my day cleaning and organizing my pantry, night stands, dresser, dining room and supply closet. I filled five garbage bags. Now that's a load!

I was up late the night before taking a quick look at a few websites on "Pantry Essentials." If you are thinking about diving into the abyss of creamed corn and Karo syrup, check these websites out. The Domestic Goddess, Crisco and Prevention.com.

As embarrassing as these before pictures are, I decided to put them on the website. Don't shout me down!

Isn't it amazing how cleaning out a space that has a door on it makes you want to open it more often :-)? I recently cleaned out my bathroom closet and pantry. It made me so happy!!! I just wanted to stand there with the doors open and smile.

It's true with life issues and sticky relationship issues too. Once you take the time to really get in there and deal with them, it's more enjoyable to go to those areas of your life. You're able to easily deal with things that come up too, instead of everything being a mountain to overcome.

It's really hard to do sometimes, but worth it!
