Hot In Little Rock

A snow day?  The gently falling flurries were beautiful this morning, but could hardly constitute a snow day in our book.  And now we are looking at gorgeous blue skies.  The air is cold, but our tea is warm.  Oh well, one more day of break for the mini-staffers!

We had quite a productive time last week.  After we put away all of the Christmas decorations, our house looked so fresh and clean, we couldn’t stop!  We uncluttered our office, our bedroom, and even tackled the mini-staffers’ bedrooms.  Now that was scary.

We think this is the best way to spend time at the beginning of each new year.  It’s time to throw away the trash that’s been piling up and get rid of the clothes and toys that just aren’t played with anymore.  Someone else will think they are grand!

And this is when The Container Store comes in quite handy.  They have storage boxes for EVERYTHING.  From ornaments to shoes to everything else – we know we can always find the right storage for our stuff.

We always feel on top of the world after a great day (or two) of organizing.  And when there’s someone around to help make it easier for us, that’s even better.  So make the commitment to rid your life of all those unnecessary piles.  Put away the holiday (make it special for next year) and enjoy your home all over again.
