Organization! Part 2

The question is: 
Read Organization! Part 1 here.
Did I get more organized with that list I made?  
Did I do any of those things on my list?

Ways for me to get more organized:
1. Use the chalkboards
The weekly one has everything we need to know about our week.  
Every Sunday is Family Meeting Night.
Ashleigh & I will be getting a reading night with me, too.  I think Sunday Nights.
Every Wednesday is Reading Night.
Every Thursday is Noah & my Reading Night (this was added a few weeks ago)
Every Friday Night is Family Movie Night.
The other one has jobs for all of us!
2. Unpack ALL boxes in the dining room!  
I am down to 3.  Not bad to compared to where I was at.
3. Something has to be done with the coats, backpack, etc area.  Time to build the one I want in my blog post, but we will have it a little different.  I want our shoe mat to fit under it since I don't have any other place for it.  I don't want those small cubbies holes in ours.  I told Shawn I will take this one, but draw it without the cubbies & the bottom shelve.  Then, he can add the measurements! 
We need this done before the new school year starts.
4.  All items in the main floor hallway gotta go.  
~I have a box to go to Ashleigh's horse camp for crafts (old cds).  
~A box 3 4 boxes to go to my old neighbor for his grandson of Ethan's old clothes
~3 of books for the library by our old place
~a box for my friend, who has been helping me
~a few boxes of movies we don't want, 
~a box of cups we don't have room 
~a toaster
~box of some clothes I don't fit into. 
~stuffed animals
~Box in our room that need to go to Goodwill.
~2 boxes in our room to go to dining room.
5.Finish Ashleigh's room.
6. Get rid of the 2 1 boxes on the boys' floor.
7.  Basement boxes ~15 (not bad from where we were at!)
8. Holiday Room

I had some set backs since I first posted Organization! Part 1.  I was hurt last month & I am still trying to over come it.  It is hard when I get hurt.  It is my left side I am having more issues with.  My pain management doctor said it is going to take some time.  I am achy & sore, but I still have things I need to get done around here.  My first priorities are the kids & their school work.  I will get this list done.  Plus add in my van broke down.  I just got it back this afternoon.

Now that I have my van back I can get the boxes to Goodwill & to other locations!  I hope I can do this Monday or Tuesday!


Off to bed!
