I like to start stuff on Monday

I don't know what it is about Monday but I love to start stuff on this day. So tomorrow I'm going to tackle my kitchen drawers. It seems like a simple job but my drawers are FULL of utensils. I have 6 or 7 spatulas and countless spoons. These things fill 3 kitchen drawers. So I have no place to put dishtowels. I can never find anything in those drawers.

In my organization book (http://www.amazon.com/Smart-Cant-Clutter-Series-ebook/dp/B0054DW3BW) she recommends taking all the extras of a utensil and putting them in a box in the kitchen for a week or so. Whatever you don't pull out of the box during that time, you can safely disregard at the end of the week. Obviously yearly things like pie spoons and basters for your turkey don't count.

I keep my weekends free except for daily chores like making the bed or scooping the boxes (I did both today!!!). My husband works all week and since we're both pretty heavy gamers, the weekend is reserved for fun. Mostly. He took the Christmas tree down last night while watching football. I could learn a lot from him.

I'm also going to start walking this poor dog of mine again this week. It's been very cold and I struggle with arthritis. But I'm armed with Aleve! And it's been pretty mild in NJ. How can I resist this face?
