Tackle It Tuesday #120
![]() |

Hello again Ladies and Happy Tuesday!
I am happy to say I actually got out today! I went to Target with my Sister-in-law to get a little shopping in, we also did dinner together and we picked up my Mother-in-law to go look at a house together! EXCITING! I am happy to even be looking… it gives me a little more hope in getting out of here.
Today I tackled the kitchen — I had let it get a bit crazy again.
My hubby even had to asked me this time, “are you going to do the dishes tomorrow hunny?” – sorry babe! But here you go…

Join Us For Tackle It Tuesday
We’re making housework blog-able!
Each week on Tuesday, we are posting before and after pictures of a project or trouble area that we tackled this week.
Find out more about Tackle It Tuesday here.
The project can be little or big – whatever you want. Basically, Tackle It Tuesday is about giving ourselves incentive, deadlines and satisfaction in getting our household tasks done. (It doesn’t even have to be housework… just whatever is on your To Do list.)
Hey Tacklers!
Tackle your housework in style with Jessie Steele vintage-inspired aprons from Rick Rack Attack.

Happy Tackling Ladies…

Thank you yet again for hosting Tackle it Tuesday. I’m making progress in my house, one tackle at a time.

That is like a nightly tackle when my husband cooks! Always nice to have a clean counter to start up with!

I’m glad you were able to get it done. Glad you were able to get out & go house hunting!
Maddy @ 7:40 am
The slightly worrying thing is, your before could be my after, or rather my ‘haven’t got to that bit yet.’
Cheers

I am envious you got out today! The closest I get is standing in my doorway in my nightdress, feeding the baby, while I send my older daughter off to school. LOL

Glad your kitchen is looking better! And YAY for getting out of the house!

Glad someone tackled their kitchen! Great job! I need to do mine but it’s needs a little more than a tackle so I postponed it!

All Pressed @ 9:30 am
[...] Today is Tuesday and that means I really needed to tackle something. I did feel motivated this morning as I threw all the clothes into the washing machine. I only hoped I would still feel motivated when it came time to iron the ones that needed pressing. Well, guess what. I did it. It feels good to have it done. I hate to iron clothes. Do you ever hate to wear something because you know that if it gets dirty and you have to wash it, it will need to be ironed? For more tackles, check out 5minutesformom.com. [...]

dishes are my least favorite following closely behind laundry!!!!!! Your kitchen looks awsome, don’t forget to give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done!!!!!! Thanks for having such courage to get real and make us all feel more comfortable in our own little worlds of chaos!!!!! Keep it up girlfriend.
