Oh goodness...another super neat trick from my morning blog stalking...if you didn't see my previous post take a look on how to section grape fruit easily and how to reduce paper clutter super easy in your house!
This link is how to freeze strawberries a super easy way!:
I am definitely going to try this! I think I'll buy a grapefruit next time I'm at the store! Happy grapefruiting!
2. I have tons of paper clutter! I started an action center (see link below) to organize it but it hasn't been working. After reading the link, I figured out why! I stuck my action center in a room I don't like to spend much time in...duh! My action center also didn't fit my organizing style...double duh!!!
Here's what wasn't working...again, in a room where the problem wasn't occurring and totally not my organizing style (very important):
My paper clutter builds up right next to my couch. Like my mom, I've never been much of a coffee table person, I like an open room and I hate how easily it becomes a hot spot (a term for a catch-all for clutter). But we've had a coffe table for the last three years since I didn't know where to put stuff. We finally sold our coffee table at my first yard sale this last weekend (so fun!). But now, I don't have a spot to put stuff...where's this all leading your wondering? Well... I bought this cute LITTLE side table that will sit against a wall and not in the MIDDLE of my living room! It's my new action center and it's actually in the room where the clutter builds up...in the exact spot it builds up even!!!! It has three containers to 1. Action, 2. File, or 3. Use (again, read the link, it explains everything!). I'm so giddy! Can't wait to see how it works!
Want to know what an action center is and how to handle paper clutter? Follow this link, it could be life changing!:
I forget that there are so many places I have to keep people informed on about us! (facebook, blogger, texting, emails, phone calls, etc.) I realized I haven't told the bloggers yet about Colton and I's future plans...though a lot of you know already. Colton was accepted to the Master's in Finance at the University of Utah and I have been accepted to the Rehabilitation and Sport Medicine PhD at Brigham Young University. We will be moving up to probably the Lehi area sometime this summer. We are so sad to leave Cedar City, I've been here 5 years now and Colton 3. It is an amazing place but we are so excited for a new adventure! We know people typically grow apart with time and distance but we hope our little group of friends can last throughout the years, the moving, the job changes, the growing families, and whatever life may bring us all. Thanks and love to our FHE group and how much you have touched our lives!
