Several years ago, I attended a class taught by and well-known homemaking guru, Daryl Hoole. One of her many bits of advice was to do "Something that Stays Done" every day. I have followed this advice off and on, but want to make it a habit in 2011!

P.S. To see the blog that inspired me to get started and to see more great ideas of things to get done, check out dirtylittlesecrets2010.blogspot.com. Thanks, Becky!

Basement Closet

This is not the first time that this closet has made and appearance on this blog.
It was clean and organized last year.
There are bins of boys' clothes in order under all of this mess.
When my boys outgrow something, they just throw it in the closet.
I organized it again today.
I guess I better tell them that the numbers on the bins represent the size of the clothes in the bin.
Do you think that would help?
(This something did help with my bag-a-day goal.  Two bags off to the D.I.!)

Overdue Fixes

These two somethings have been needing repair for a long time.
Like years...
I finally got the pieces together today and fixed them.
One was a doll missing some hair and shoes and the other was a wreath missing it's heart.
All fixed...
It took about three years to get around to fixing these things
and three minutes to fix them.

Do you ever have projects like that?

NY Sister Post

My sister-in-law, Jana, just sent me pictures of her spare bedroom.
She's been wanting to get rid of the blue paint since she moved in.
Look how amazing it looks!
I think I need some paint that color in my house.

Baptism Talk

The 8-year-old boy got baptized on Saturday.
The 11-year-old boy gave a talk.
I've used this talk many times.
Since it was for our family (and the old one was falling apart),
I made a new pretty one!

Freezer Dinners

More freezer meals today.
This time it is Tater Tot Casserole.
Not the healthiest meal we eat,
but one of the tastiest!
;-)

Therapy Mirror

When I took the 3-year-old girl to therapy last month,
every room had big mirrors that she loved.
We took a big mirror out of our bathroom recently
so I chipped off most of the glue
and mounted it in her room. 
Now the torture fun begins!

Hang it up!

I decided to finally take care of this mess today.
I had read about making a cute cork board jewelry organizer,
but I chose to use what I had.
Here is the result.
 And here is the bag I'm getting rid of.
