Cleaning out the Christmas clutter.

One thing I love to do after Christmas is done is to clean things out and get things put away.We started the tradition many years ago of putting up our tree and Christmas decorations on Thanksgiving night and to have them down before New Years eve.                             

I'm with Tara, January is usually the time when we clean things out,declutter and get ready to finish up our school year.This week we spent a good 4 hours on our bedroom decluttering,reorganizing the closet and just getting rid of things.I wrote up our school schedule and have a few rooms left to do.                                                                                                            The main rooms I want to finish are our laundry room and kitchen.Gilbert is going to put up a shelf in the laundry room to get all of the detergents off of the dryer.I have some bookshelves to clear and declutter and a few other things to clean out.Like Tara at Faith Acre Farms I'd really like to simplify things in the house.For one thing our house is small 1500 square ft with 7 people in it.When it is a cluttered mess I get very little accomplished and there seems to be stress in the air.Where as when things are clean and tidy the day just seems to go along so much better.I remind myself that God is a God of order and not chaos and that's how my house should be.As soon as I am finished I will post some pictures.I hope you all have a Happy New Year.
