I have my own New Years tradition...I take down all of the Christmas decorations and clean like a wild woman! This is the first year in 13 years that my husband doesn't have to leave Jan. 2 for a 10 day sales meeting. Yes...that is right every year for the last 13 years he has spent his new years day packing and I have spent the day packing so that anything that I needed his help with would be complete before he hopped on a plane for unknown destinations...mostly Florida. But this year to help control expenses his company canceled the January meeting.
So this year I went through all of my Christmas decorations (like only a compulsive organizer can do) and tossed any that were in need of visiting the dumpster. But as I am sure most of you scrappers know...because organizing is one of our favorite past times, I could not stop and managed to go through all of my kitchen cupboards cleaning and tossing. It is very exhilarating and yet it helps my fear of Clean House showing up on my door step. I love the first of the year because I like cleaning and getting rid of stuff...even though it seems early to be doing spring cleaning it is nice to clean crap out.
One thing I did notice as I was cleaning is that my cupboard of glasses has fewer and fewer glasses...oddly enough I have not broke any or seen any that are lost in other parts of the house. Curious I know! I am beginning to wonder if any of my 5 children have anything to do with this phenomenon.....hmmmmmmm.......
So I hope that you had a fabulous New Year's eve and a great day!
