Making the Rules


Ok, so it looks as if I'll only have time to blog once a week.  But hey, I'm a single mom AND a teacher...I should have all the time in the world right? HA!!As you know, I'm trying to declutter my classroom and home and luckily I found a blog to help me on the classroom end. This weeks assignment over at
Clutter-Free Classroom
we are supposed to make a plan for decluttering and purging the stuff we don't need in our classroom.  I didn't think very long and hard about this but I did create this list as I was looking around my classroom and here is what I came up with: 


I decided to make it cutesy. :)

As I look at the list now, I think to myself "DUH! (insert face palm) Why haven't I done this myself a LONG time ago?"  Now all I need to do is make my apron and gather a few boxes (because I don't have any plastic tubs (I'm soooooo broke until payday) and I'll be on my way to begin my purging next week!! I can't wait....err...uh...yeah I can.  This. is. going. to. be. tough. work...as if I don't spend enough time already up at my school.  This could add hours!!! :(  I'll be back to show the apron I make (hopefully before the weekend is up).  Have fun!

    Love how you made it cute! Maybe you could even print this off to hold yourself accountable! Also remember to take baby steps you don't have to do everything all at once!
