Tackle It Tuesday — Susan’s Turn

Tackling the hall closet this week. The before picture is up on my blog – ugh the humiliation!

Your playroom looks fab. I junked a bunch of stuff after Christmas and it’s stayed under semi-control so far.

What a great friend you have! The playroom looks excellent.

I am tackling the boys rooms this week! Sorting through clothes, toys and books.

Playrooms/toy areas are always a big tackle. It looks great!

You\’ve given me something to look forward to in 5 years after we have kids that start making messes. Looks great!!!

[...] are you tackling this week? And check out other Tackle It Tuesday posts over at 5 Minutes for [...]

Cleaning and organizing is always more fun with a friend. Your room looks amazing!

I think work is easier to complete when someone is doing it with you. Have a successful day!

Getting rid of toys is always difficult for me. We’re slowly going through Munchkin’s toys and passing them on to someone else who can use them. **sigh** They grow up too fast.

I have so much cleaning and organizing to tackle but one thing at a time.

I am afraid of sorting in our toy room! It’s insane how much stuff is in there!

My mom and dad have been in their house for 30 years, and my mom got sick of being a packrat. She throws out, donates or sells one thing a day – and has been doing it for over two years!

If you have something your packrat brain doesn’t want to let go of, but you know you’ll never use or it has outlasted its use, have a Moment of Silence. I’ve done this, actually, before moving to Rome. You put the object on a table or cradle it in your arms, tell a story about it, then have a moment of silence for it and say goodbye. It really works!

Just spent an hour tidying up our bookshelves. Everything’s sorted and arranged. I’m wondering how long it will last.

We tackled painting the entire house! Now, I have to tackle washing the windows. I hope to begin and end this evening! Thank goodness for daylight savings time and the added daylight!

Great tackle! The after picture looks wonderful! We made a housekeeping schedule this week. Now we just have to follow it!

I have to tackle our game room one of these days.

Looks good!

I needed some extra motivation today, so I joined in. I’ll update my post with pictures later today. It is motivating to see what others are getting done today as well. Off I go!

If we could just tackle the hot spot and then it would stay that way!

I used to be a pack rat but one great purge and I was hooked on cleaning things out. I am still working on each room but they all will get done!
Great tackle!

I tackled finishing my taxes! yeah all done. Now where’s my refund?

Wow, great job! I’m doing laundry, actually putting it all away, in drawers!

I am sooo in…lol.

Thanks for the inspiration…bathroom vanity cleaned top to bottom!!

I couldn’t handle much today–I’ve quit Diet Pepsi for the 42nd time and it’s rough today. So I tackled something small. And did it! Yay!

Visit To Love, Honor and Vacuum today!

The playroom looks great! Ugggh, that reminds me I need to clean out toys too!

Today was my one no work day over the Spring Break… Of course thats paid employment The children and I organized a NEW system at our main door to get homework, activity, coats shoes and our calender all in one place. No more missed school notices

The playroom looks fantastic, my girls would love a playroom like that Great tackle.

Great job, love the color in that room!

The toys have a multiplier…if only our cash flows did that:)

i bet it feels good to have a cleaner play room

I’m sooo close to finishing the redesign of the youngest kids room, I can taste it!!! I tried so hard today, but I guess next Tuesday will be the big reveal… I’m extra proud of the $12 spent on recovering my dining room chairs though… and getting the goody bag off, only one week late. sigh. At least it’s getting done, right?!

I have just discovered this meme fromyou and love it… thanks for motivating me. My bedroom looks great now.

OK, I want to know where you got the basket tower over in the corner….

Good job on the playroom! Our playroom is actually my son’s room and boy is it crowded! LOL! We still have the changing table in there, but now the baskets and shelves hold toys. We also use baskets / canvas boxes under the crib (guess it’ll be converted to the toddler bed soon – where does the time go??) to store toys. We also have an “underbed” type wrapping paper organize that works great for small toys and has easy access. Those Rubbermaid totes make great toy boxes (we have one a clear tinted blue color which fits great with his room and it wasn’t planned).
