| August 29, 2010 | Posted by Kate under cleaning, hearthcraft, Houseworks Holiday Plan 2010 |
Today I started the Houseworks Holiday Plan, which had me print out some pages for my Household Notebook – which I started last November and promptly buried under a sea of papers – and begin decluttering my ‘office’ and paperwork zones.

I had a $25 gift card to spend for Amazon, so I spent almost two days whittling down my options to get the most bang for my buck. I finally settled on spending $32, but $7 out of pocket for 3 books is a steal! Today, I got the package, hidden cleverly under my porch… more
