My Bathroom Organization Post

I wanted to share my bathroom organization with you...I don't have any before pictures but let me assure you that this is a huge improvement! We have one bathroom (yes, I know it's crazy!) and we have 6 in our household. Four bedrooms and one bathroom...we are in the process of adding another bathroom downstairs! Let me take you on a tour to our bathroom and closet from top to bottom.

Here is our ONE bathroom....I have hooks on the wall for each family member to hang their towel up after showering. Each family member has their own colored towel...CSH-Green, CWH-Bright Blue, GLH-Yellow, SJH-Red, Hubbies-Taupe and mine-blue. All the colors can be found in the quilted shower curtain.

Here is the closet. I have a shoe bag hanging on the door to help maximize the space. It has lotion, razor, Q-tips, etc stored in the individual pockets.

Top of closet...top shelf has a box of curling irons, nail care, travel bags, and to the right a space for beach towels.

Next shelf tape, cotton balls, travel size items, other like items are stored together and guest towels.

The next shelf has a basket of my make-up, hand towels, washcloths and extra family towels. These are hung up on the hooks when the others are being washed.

Next shelf houses the bathroom light bulbs, 2 drawer containers-the larger has a drawer of oral care, cold medications-mostly cough drops and bandaides, the small has bobby pins and ponytail holders, BioFreeze/Alcohol/Peroxide and extra hair care items.

Below that is where the dirty clothes go. I have a basket (another one that is stored in the laundry room to care the clothes from upstairs to downstairs).

There you have it....my neat and organized bathroom. Everything is labeled. Everything has a place. No more searching for hidden items anymore!

Home Alone With So Much Too Do!

Good morning fellow bloggers! I have home today by myself, my three youngest children are in Arkansas in the Mountains with their Grandma, Great-Grandma, Aunt She-She & Uncle Chad. My Aunt & Uncle and their grandsons are there too! My husband and oldest son just pulled out of the driveway for ODP training in St Louis. I could have gone with them but I figured that I would take the opportunity to do some work!

Here is my game plan for the day.....yes I know it's Sunday & it's a day of rest but I can do that this week!...

1. Clean kitchen-mop floors and clean off cabinets.
2. Clean bathroom. I actually completed one of my June-To-Do items: Clean out Bathroom Closet-I emptied in out purchased some organizing bins & re-organized the entire closet. I have more room in the closet than I orginally had!
3. Change sheets on beds.
4. Run sweeper in LR and FR.
5. Finish laundry-I have 3 more loads before washing the sheets. I have one more load to do!
6. Take care of CMSL credits-send to my treasurer-send out an email to teams regarding Fall league registration. Actually completed on Monday morning.
7. Update my prayer journal-print out pages for my special friends-Kim & Tina. I already gave one to another special friend, Mindi one the other day.

If I get all of that completed before 6 pm, I will tackle a corner in the garage. My grandmother is having a garage sale on Friday and Saturday & I would like to take some bigger items in the garage to the sale.

I will check back with you later today & update my progress! Wish me luck in getting everything completed!

Tackle It Tuesday (Crossing it Off)

I don't have a specific project to complete for today. My major project is cleaning out & reorganizing my garage which is a month long or more project! My tackle today is a list of things that I need to do today. So my tackle will be crossing off my items off my list as I get them completed! Check back later today and see if I completed them all!

1. Make Beds.

2. Take CSH to Katy Trail to start training for HS Soccer. He will need to run 3 miles in under 21 minutes on a trail and in the heat. I'm going to use this time to walk the trail & get my exercise in for the day!

I ended up walking 2 miles while he ran! Got my exercise in for the day!

3. Pick up down stairs living room.

4. Clean out car.

5. Return some items to Target. Decided to keep the 2 items!

6. Clean off desk.

7. Couple loads of laundry.

8. Dance.

9. Baseball.

10. Soccer.

What are you tackling today?

The FlyLady Mission today in the Master Bedroom is to clean out my drawer of panties, bras & pantyhose. I did that when I cleaned out my closet and dresser. So far this week's zone has been easy!

Great Closet Cleanout is to go through shoes, did that as well. I'm going to go through the shoes in the garage instead!

Got everything done today except clean out my car!!! I also didn't get a chance to go through the shoes in the garage. I will work on that tomorrow!
