Cleaning cupboards and TRYING to get organized!

Well, I started last night and I'm back at it.  I had to run some errands this morning and now I have the WHOLE HOUSE torn up....well, not really but when you clean cupboards it seems one thing leads to another!  I did manage to get the metal shelf unit onto the porch and got some things out of my cupboards that I don't use all the time and that were taking up valuable kitchen real estate.  The food items are "backups" and items that won't be affected by heat or cold hopefully.



After that, it cleared up some space in my "pantry" unit in the  garage which is right outside my kitchen door on the steps down to the garage.  So, then I cleaned that and in both places I STILL have room left over!  Yippe!  Yahoo!  Don't worry...I'll fill it up I'm sure. 

This is the top 2 shelves of the "pantry" in the garage. The top has bleach, ammonia, and water. My kitchen door is directly to the right and I am standing on the stairs leaning up against the opposite wall to take this picture.  That shelf is not bowed like that but for some reason it looks it in the picture.
The bottom 2 shelves above have my floor/carpet cleaning and laundry detergent making supplies.
  And will you "looky there".....an empty shelf! 
 Now, I've started on the kitchen cupboards but I work tomorrow at the consignment store so didn't I tell you....I'll have to leave with the kitchen all torn up but I'm making progress!!!!  Can't fault a girl for that!  Tomorrow I'll have before and afters of the cupboards.  I got smart after I started this post.  Have a great one!

  1. I understand your pain! Whenever I start a cleaning project, it gets worse before it gets better. I hope you can get back to it before too long! You are off to a great start.
