Call me crazy...

So, call me crazy, but I have begun the ritual of spring cleaning! Today was actually a super-productive day, even though I went to work tonight for a few hours! I thoroughly cleaned my kitchen, bathroom, living room and dining room today (and just finished (most of) our bedroom as well...tricky, since Garry was sound asleep in bed! Ha! I just have to clean out underneath our bed next. I want to go through my cabinets in the kitchen soon, and purge, purge, purge! Actually, if I could just get the kitchen to "make sense" and be organized, I would be thrilled! Tomorrow morning, before I go to work, I am going to do my entryway (I sorted through everyone's basket today, so it should be a breeze). Then, my next place to tackle will be the kids' room. Their room has been a bit of a frustration for me, because, in addition to Matt's crib and Emma's bed, I also moved in Matt's toddler bed. So far, he hasn't really wanted to sleep in it, but he loves to climb on board and play! I am really stumped in here...when I figure it all out, I will post some pictures (but don't anticipate that it will be too quick...I am guessing that I might be able to do it on Friday...or Saturday). Emma has also asked me recently for a pretty purple bedroom. After I get the basement all cleaned, I will start looking at paint chips for the extra bedroom (it will probably be her room in a few years, so we'll just paint it pretty for now). Speaking of the basement, I am hoping that I can get most of it done over the course of the next week...at least, I know I can do the laundry room, family room, bathroom and playroom. After that, my next challenge will be that other bedroom, and finally the storage area under the steps. Keep your fingers crossed that I will be able to continue with my motivation! Actually, the motivation isn't so much the problem, as the little tornadoes that tend to follow me around!
