Come get some decluttering and organizing done with me today! Disaster may have happened, but I am moving on and still got a lot done. Use this as a timer and let's get our houses decluttered and organized together. Click here to watch my 15 minute declutter series: kzbin.info/aero/PLJiIADgfo6nl4MRj8-9agIf83skHPaPiu

I have a cabinet and 2 cupboards in my laundry room that were cluttered and disgusting. I took 2 days to bleach clean the cabinet, then decluttered & organized the items that are stored there. Then yesterday I took all the items from the cupboards and when I was finished there was a lot of space. Washing down the sink area, I felt so good to have this finally done. Laundry area is all done, plus a pantry closet cleaned. PHEW!! Thanks for your motivation. I used a CD to be my timer. Felt bad for you when the jar broke.😢

I totally understand your frustration. Last year, I knocked a jar of homemade relish off the back side of a shelving unit in our basement. And the shelves were too heavy to move, so I had to lay on my stomach to reach back (onto the wall and floor) and clean up the mess. Sticky and full of glass shards 🫣and then my husband had to spray with bleach water. All the while, my inner voice is screaming at me--how could you be so careless?!!! Unfortunately, we are our own worst critics. We would never say or think that if it happened to a friend. I enjoy your "real life" videos. 😃 take care!
