Another Funday Monday!

Hello friends! How’s it going today? This weekend started off with a bang and then chilllllled out! We had a nice family dinner with steaks & Manhattans in the city. Baseball Saturday with housework and movie night. We watched Castaway with Cooper. I worked around the house. Went for a walk. Fun family times.

Our bathrooms are clean. Donations have been dropped off.

Upstairs has been vacuumed.

Laundry was folded and put away while we watched a movie (multi-tasking champ!)

Meal prep is done!

Happy TUESDAY, folks.

Did you have a nice Labor Day break?  This weekend we had some playdates, Casey and Cooper worked on sanding & painting at the baseball field, and I went on a cleaning/organizing rampage.  I put a lot of things off during the summer and so it felt good to get quite a few spaces cleared out. Especially now that we have baseball and school routines in full swing. I have two garbage bags filled with things to donate. YESSSSSSSS to getting rid of things that no longer serve us!

This weekend I organized:

• makeup drawer
• pantry
• laundry space
• straightened up my closet
• linen closet
• kitchen table
• fridge & freezer (!!!)
• pots & pans cabinet
• utensil drawer

I also did some painting! I haven’t done any since I finished the #100daysartbeforebreakfast project. It felt good to mix paint again. I forgot how therapeutic it is for me.

Also did some meal prep:

Be sure to follow my hashtag on Instagram for more! #shutterbeanmealprep

AND!!! I was able to get to ground zero on laundry. High for productive holiday weekends. I know I wasn’t supposed to be working, but when you’ve got the high straightenance bug, you have to run with it.
