Slacker

I've been a major 10 things slacker lately. There are so many projects looming over my head too that I want to tackle so I need to get my butt in gear. Today I cleaned one of my kitchen drawers. This one holds measuring cups, oven mitts, pot holders and cutting boards. I needed to go through my cutting boards because I have some wood ones in there I never use because wood cutting boards skeeve me out. I got another plastic one this weekend to urge me to start this drawer. It was a quick and easy project. Before: everything shoved in there (are you surprised, this is me?!! I am shover!!!) I desperately need new oven mitts. I have non matching old ugly stained ones.
and the after. I can open and close it easily and don't have to push stuff down to close the drawer.

Stuff I threw away
1-2. Two wooden cutting boards
3. Louisiana pot holder I had forever
4. random mini spoon
5. clips for who knows what?? It's amazing I never stabbed myself with these!
6. random tupperware top
7. tiny measuring spoon I never use
8-11. LOL seriously. This wasn't in this drawer but I found these in a random drawer in my bathroom and they needed to go. It's tubes of vaseline from when my son was circumsized....um yeah he's FIVE. WHY are they in there still? WHY WHY WHY??
So in order to not be a slacker anymore this is my next goal-my bedroom dresser. AH. It gives me heebie jeebies thinking about it. It has 6 drawers, 5 of them need major work. Guess what??? All my clothes are shoved in all the drawers. God I thought I was semi neat before this blog! So my goal is one drawer a day for the next 5 days. I can and will do this. I want to get some of this stuff up on e-bay too or donate it. So now that I told you, hold me to it. I will start with drawer one tonight.
I am also listing 3 pairs of shoes on e-bay that I got rid of when I cleaned my closet a few weeks back. I gave them to my sister thinking they'd fit her and they don't. I can't wear them and the sandals are basically brand new so I will sell them. I'll be happy w/ the extra change in my pocket and to not have to look at them anymore.
