SMARTy Pants

I almost forgot about SHS, in fact I almost forgot it was Saturday. I just can't keep my days straight lately. Last month went by so quickly and this past week was a blur of pumpkins, costumes & candy. I did get a few other things accomplished the last couple of days. Remember this goal? Well I was successful! I managed to enter all of the contests that really interested me. They were all fun giveaways but some things I really don't have need for like a nursing cover - weaning the baby! and I decided not to enter for any books, well except a couple for this cookbook because I have a bookshelf full of books that I have yet to read. That was SMART of me wasn't it? Not bringing in any more clutter or things I won't get to. I just found out this morning that I won a drawing for a year's subscription to the Family Fun magazine. My first step in that will be to figure out a way to keep my favorite articles without keeping stacks of magazines. I see binders, page protectors & color coded dividers in my future...how exiting!

So last week I decided to completely restart my SMARTness. It's going pretty well so far. I did a quick clean in the kitchen all but two nights, if I remember correctly, maybe three. But not a bad start. So I'll continue doing that this week. I also want to get back into organizing a space - whatever size - each day. I have stacks of scrappy magazines that I need to go through, a random box in the corner by the back door & I'm not sure what's in there along with a bedroom that is just a disaster. In fact it's so bad that there will be before & after pictures involved and it will be entered into a contest. Having an organized & clean room is a reward in itself but winning prizes are always fun too.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you are having a SMART week. Click on the button for more SMARTy pants.
