Sprrriinngg Cleeeaaaannning

I don't really like cleaning on a regular basis..I just do it because I know I need to and because I am what I like to call borderline OCD. I like things clean. I can let some things go, but only to a certain extent, then I must clean.

With that being said, I sometimes let certain things get away from me, or just get plum out of hand.  So, I am joining I Heart Organizing with her Spring Cleaning Extravaganza!



This is Jen's plan...I am using this but changing it a bit....

     I am going to hopefully do a post each Saturday week with before and after's of each area.  I am all about some lists and usually if it gets written down you better watch out because it will get crossed off!!  The only thing that makes me nervous about this whole thing is the posting of the before pictures...i am ashamed. BUT, I have seen so many of you do it and I know that no one will judge...right?

I might have to jump on this train! I need a little cleaning motivation!
