yesterday I dinked around under the kitchen sink. Surprisingly, I didn't find much that didn't belong there. I moved a few things around and then helped John prep for a 7th grade lesson on the Preamble by utilizing my mad glue stick skills and awkwardly wielding a sharpie.
Today I went after the fridge.
Lots of random stuff.
Turns out-most of it unnecessary.
Earlier in the day I just took everything off and piled it up.
I knew I wouldn't to get much of it done until after the kids were asleep, you know, now that my sweet 19 month old has grown out of naps (seriously, does anyone else have kids who do that?!).
So tonight, after the kiddies went to bed, I pulled my pile onto the living room floor and went at it. At one point it looked like this-
sorry about the icky pictures, I took them early morning and late at night-thus requiring the flash...I hate using the flash
But through a few episodes of Wings (thank you Netflix) I finished up my project and John finished up his lesson plans. In the end this is what my fridge looks like:
No more papers hanging around. No piles on the top. I even tossed magnets that I thought were ugly. That fridge top has only been wiped down maybe twice in the past 4 years! This fridge needed a bit of tlc and I'm glad it got it:)

You could totally keep those ugly magnets and modpodge some fabric of scrapbook paper on them to pretty them up:) This is hillary by the way.
ooh-good idea:) thanks! and I have to admit it did come across pretty funny at first (when I thought it was Ryan:) ).
