Yikes! I have the spring cleaning bug...

Something has come over me. The last two days I have been sorting out spare rooms, boxes, bookcases, containers and cupboards like you wouldn't believe!

I think it has something to do with my new job. For the last five years I have worked a 7 day fortnight (12 hour shifts mind you). Now I have a new position and work 9 days a fortnight. So you see, I have to be a little more organised than before. The last few weeks every meal has been pre-planned, washing has been done most nights and I am in bed before 10pm.

Yesterday I made a banana cake, did all the washing, cleaned the kitchen from top to bottom and pottered around the house. Today I have gutted an entire room, thrown out enough junk to fill a green garbage bin and have started sorting out my craft supplies.

Tonight I have been listing a few items on Ebay. If you are in the market for cheap buttons or beads. Take a look.

Hopefully tomorrow I can have some fun and make some more button supplies.

Odds and Blobs Shop on madeit.com.au




Yesterday, during a much needed break from cleaning, I purchased this little padded pouch from Odds and Blobs on Madeit. It's going in my handbag to store my tissues and lip balms and hand cream and other 'why can I never find you when I need you' items that swim around in handbag darkness. Check out her other items...I am loving the fabric range....she ships internationally too!

Don't know where to start...

Today I just don't know where to start. Shall I....
  • bake a banana cake?
  • do all the washing - clothes, linen and towels?
  • dust, vaccuum and mop?
  • clean out the fridge before going to fruit and veg/butcher shop shopping?
  • make buttons!?
  • clean up the study/computer room that now resembles the local tip?
  • colour my hair?
  • catch up on all my favourite TV shows recorded on Mystar?

So much to do with so little motivation. Bring on the sunshine baby!
