Summer Cleaning! Organizing FUN!

 This past week, I helped my mom organize the kitchen. My mom has a lot of stuff and it just keeps accumulating so I had to intervene and help her out. I felt like I was on an less extreme episode of Hoarders because I would repeatedly say, "Can we get rid of this?" or "Are you really gonna use this?" LOL. My mom was willing to get rid of a lot of her things which was nice because it sped up the process. We spent each day cleaning out a section of the kitchen and organizing each drawer. The kitchen looks a lot more declutter. We plan to have a garage sale at the end of the month though I have already been posting a lot of her nicer items on Craig's List. Oh how I love technology! It's like having an online garage sale. I've sold a few items in less than 30 minutes and the buyers came that same day. It's awesome! Now that I think about, I actually need to declutter a lot of my personal things. Moving back to my mom's house, I have even less space (well not that I had a lot of space living in my college apartment but you know what I mean). Half of the room is filled Baby Eden's things i.e. changing table, her clothes, etc which leaves me to getting rid of a lot of my college things. I'll be fun to go through them.

Deep Cleaning-Down and dirty
I think it's time to declutter my life, figuratively and literally. Simplicity is key and nice especially when I want to move forward. I finished the first chapter of my life which was finishing college and I did. Now I got to write the next chapter. We'll see how it goes!
 
 

As a mother, I've learned that I have to utilize the time that I have when Baby Eden is asleep. When she falls asleep, I have a certain amount of time before she wakes up so I gotta work fast and efficiently.  I'm on Baby Eden's schedule now. For the most part, she's a good baby. She does have a hard time taking naps but when she does, she's out cold for a few hours. It's nice for me because I can work around the house or just get "me time." I love spending time with her because I'm just learning so much about her. More later, my baby's about to wake up!
