Next week's challenge

So, what area in your house needs the most work?

Any suggestions for next week's challenge?

I vote for kids' room/s.

We did that the first week I think... but we can do it again if you want.

I would like to tackle something big while I am motivated... perhaps office, or sewing area, or kitchen?

Whatcha think??

Love Val

Kitchen would be great for me! (I'd vote for kids again since I missed the first week, but I am still avoiding that one!) DH is off a couple of days so he could watch dd and I could get through the cupboards. I'm sure it needs a good cleaning too (like under thngs that never get moved - stove, fridge, ...).

Anything works for me. You guys decide.

I'll be finishing up in Joshie's room painting it yellow. I need to start on Kyle's room painting it mystic blue.

I'm up for anything. So far I am totally missing the master bedroom, I just haven't had a chance, and this week looks to be even busier...so I'm not sure how much I can do...but just swiping at the clutter in the kitchen would be beneficial. It's my second-worst room right behind the office. Even getting one box out of the kitchen would help matters.

So...anything...so far I have thoroughly done the playroom and the kids' room (two separate rooms)...but still need fine-tuning in the kids' room.

Oh {{{{hugs}}}}} Laurie! The toilet is temporary... temporary...

I am so glad you are getting the work you need done! That is so exciting... I had my basement redone last year and I totally know how it is... when you get to the middle you start thinking "Is there a reason why I asked for this incessent banging all day long and is it worth it??" I have been there.. but now I have a play room instead of an unsanitary basement... it all works out. '

Can't wait to see pictures of your new bathroom!

We can still do the kitchen can't we Laurie? I thought that room was done already???

Love Val

The kitchen is cool!!! Mine could always use a little more organization.

I do have a question for all of you.....How do you organize your vitamins?

I tend to not administer them on a regular basis because I keep them in the cabinet. Out of sight, out of mind type of thing.

I was thinking of getting a lazy Susan and keep them on the counter. That way I would always see them.

Or, I was thinking of getting one of those month-at-a-time thingys so I could sort them all out and be ready to go.

How do you handle your vites?

I am working from the back of the house out....

and the kids rooms are scheduled for this week. So, I may just read w/ interest what you are all doing and be working on different rooms.

I am afraid if I bounce around the house, I won't be as efficient, if that makes any sense. )
