600th Post and More Spring Cleaning

I've been sloooooowly chipping away a few more tasks for each of the Spring Cleaning days that I've begun over the last couple of weeks. I'm not done, but I'm making good progress, considering the fact that I'm totally burned out!

I'm especially excited about my bathroom. What's that? You don't want to see more pictures of my bathroom? Wow - that was a little harsh. I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that.

I mostly did some rearranging under our sink, not much purging. I took my bin of nail polish and accessories out from under Mike's side and put it under mine, where it belongs. I returned the extra box of hair dye I had under there, things like that.

Under Mike's bathroom sink:

I am beyond excited about the little black basket. I used it for my shower caddy in college and it's since held all sorts of stuff, but it fit all of Mike's "morning items" SO perfectly. Which means it will keep them off the bathroom counter every morning. And I won't feel frustrated each day after he leaves for work and neglects to put his stuff away. Every day. It wasn't even on his radar anymore. I will not miss that clutter - is it weird that I'm celebrating inside?

This is what the top of our sink has looked like ALL WEEK. It's usually cluttered with razors, gel, hairbrushes and deoderant that Mike wanted to keep at arm's reach.

Yes, that's four enormous packages of Stay Free that you see there. Walgreen's paid me $1 each to leave the store with them a few months back and I'm saving them for the joys of post-pregnancy.

Also, you might notice that handy little gadget hanging on the right cabinet door. I actually had Mike uninstall that from our old house and bring it with us. I love it so much! I have a foldable hair dryer that fits in there, plus my flat iron and curling iron and my attractive shower cap hanging on the top.

This is the before and after of my craft room...a clean work surface is so much more inspiring!

You might wonder what the kids are doing while I'm busy decluttering? They're pretending to be animals on the bathroom floor, coloring and covering themselves in stickers.
