I am on vacation this week, and it has been somewhat okay. We have an older vehicle that needed belt repair for a long while, and this week the battery decided it was time to stop working as well. Repaired to the tune of $420 later. But I am not going to let that ruin my time off…too much to do…and do it joyfully.
This is what some call a staycation…staying at home while I have vacation from work (bonus – I am not sick). I have goals, and a list of priorities to accomplish this week. Weekends never seem to be long enough for my organizing, and the week just piles stuff back up. So it is a never ending circle it seems.
Anyway…one of the goals this week was to empty out my pantry. I knew it was bad, but really had no idea how bad it truly was. Jar of Alfredo sauce: expiration Feb 2006! Yep, that plus a lot more. 2 large black garbage bags full, and some time later = organized. For the moment anyway. I had the kids help, and hopefully that will play into keeping it for longer than 3 days.
A two drawer system (that I found in the garage), and some other tubs (that I can’t find the lids) organized the chips and pasta. All of my baking ingredients are on one shelf (sugars, cocoa, marshmallows). It may not look like much, but, oh what a beautiful sight it is for us.
I also added a cutie to my scrap closet.
This was a bonus Decor Elements from Stampin’ Up from a couple of months ago. I LOVE their design and ease of application. If you need anything from Stampin’ Up – Julie is great – and you can find her here:
But isn’t it the cutest! Most people won’t see it, but I do from where I sit in the office. I need to get some small chalk and a chalk ledge so that I can get some great use out of it.
Well, back to it…still have more to get done…and it is already Thursday! Have a great day.
Blessings.

I love making cards. Once a month, Julie (wonderful, crafty friend), who sells Stampin’ Up, hosts a stamp-a-stack weekend. I always feel NOT crafty when I attend these things. Julie always is the first to tell you that she follows directions, and will take from scrapbook pages or other ideas and make it her own.
You can find her here…

Tell her where you found her! =)
Enjoy!
