September update and new goals for October

“Rainbow” quilt that I started quite awhile ago and started back on it today by sewing all the blocks together one way with chain stitching  But its not a realistic rainbow as the colors are in the wrong order and real rainbows don’t have black and brown in them.  

Get ready for Fall organization plan

I didn’t complete everything on my 30 items list but I’m so happy with all the jobs that are done,  pretty much all of them make my life easier now - cooking is much better in the kitchen after the cleaning and decluttering.  Getting dressed is a breeze now  that my clothes are organized and minimized.  

Mopping the garage made me feel like a crazy woman though.  It doesn’t get done but every year or 2 and that floor really needed it.  

But I’m sure the 3 neighbors that drove by while I was mopping thought I was a crazy Mrs Clean fanatic - 😂 - 

The list for September worked so well for me that I’ve made a goal list for October.  

And I had free time today so I worked on some them today even though it’s still September.

Fall challenge progress and a few other things

Good evening everyone.

Most of my work has been in the kitchen this week and I’m so happy with the results.  

I didn’t take photos of everything but here are a few 

Gadget drawer- before, it was so unorganized that it was hard to open and close

After 

Under the sink Before 😱

After - I didn’t have any shelf paper so I used part of a checked vinyl tablecloth that I previously cut down to fit the table holding plants in the breakfast nook.  

Our tiny, pitiful garden has decided to produce lots of peppers. 

I diced a dozen or so bell peppers to freeze.  

Then I pickled some crazy hot tiny peppers and sweetened jalapeño peppers.  

I browsed awhile at Dollar Tree.  

I did not buy these black roses embellished with eyeballs and spiders.  

I did buy these M&Ms but I don’t recommend them at all.  

Oh, here’s my fall challenge list- more things done but a few things still waiting....... but housework is patient and is always waiting to be done, right? 

Thank you for stopping by 

❤️🏘❤️
