| Oh Jeeze....I'm deep cleaning the kitchen |
|
We just emptied out the bottom cabinets. One couple does not need 15 Pyrex bowls. I did find that Pizza cutter that's been missing for 3 years and that avocado cutter that I've been "doing without". I also found tops to pots that are long gone and far too many cookie sheets and muffin pans. I don't think I'll be making 90 odd muffins at the same time in the near future.
Whats hiding in your kitchen?

I am organizing and paring down my whole house (slowly....), so that when I eventually croak, my brothers won't have to bring a dumpster.

| 2. I'm doing the same thing, calling it feng shui on steroids. |
|
Kitchen, bedroom, study, the attic. Throwing away stuff, donating, shredding, recycling. Finding stuff I thought I lost. I'm really getting into space and less clutter. Kinda shocked how much stuff I brought upstairs, one item at a time.

| 3. I'm back off track now... |

too many other rooms with concerns. But Tupperware Death Valley is in good shape after my purge. I miss some of my bowls though. I made a big pasta salad and mixed it in one of the square snapware containers. It just wasn't the same.
I need to go through all of my oils and vinegars and see what's what. Same for spices. And why do I have a zillion containers of sprinkles?
I need to get a rack for serving trays. I pulled out a few the other day and realized I have more somewhere in the dark abyss.
I am a professional organizer's dream!

| 4. I started doing that last year. |
|
Got sidetracked by a number of consecutive disasters.
I've gone to more funerals in the last year than I have throughout the entire remainder of my life. Among others those included a sibling, an uncle, a long-time friend, 3 suicides, a brain anyeurism, and my most beloved dog. Also, a friend closed her business and the school I was enrolled in discontinued my program of study (without giving students an opportunity to complete their training).
Now the entire house, garage, yard and storage area is a frickin disaster because it has been neglected. I need to clean - and deep clean - and purge.
Send cleaning vibes my way please. I'm afraid to know what is hiding in my kitchen.

My daughter is gearing up to get her first apartment. I have a box put aside for her, a box for goodwill and a box for the dump.
I'm so proud...she cooked her first chicken yesterday!

| 11. I'm deep cleaning the kitchen floor |
|
because the brown fake parquet was looking distinctly grey. Since I'm an old broad and partially crippled, I treated myself to a Hoover floor scrubber.
It's my new best friend.
