#1 Found you thru Dusty Frame
#2 I purpose to compliment someone every day…
when checking out at a grocery store…tell the clerk “What pretty earrings….or you have
a great smile….or what a beautiful name (on their name tag”…it almost never fails to get a smile and a thank you!
#3 Every day I clean/organize something in our home….sometimes it’s just a drawer or closet, sometimes it’s an entire room….just depends on how much time I have….that way I don’t feel pressured to “GET IT ALL DONE” at once.God Bless, Pam, South Bend

On the Quiverfull blog many years ago there was an articulate poster with many children who would sign her post with “taking dominion one closet at a time” or “taking dominion one load of laundry at a time”….and I loved it! It certainly puts our organizing into perspective because we are taking up the God-given authority we have and making decisions and taking dominion over our “Eden”!

Thank you for the wonderful post. I especially loved the reminder that it’s okay to take a homeschooling break to reorganize so that it’ll be easier to focus on learning when not distracted by the clutter. (Guess this means I should get up from the computer and go attack the clutter on my desk?!?)
Thanks so much. I love your blog and all the encouragement and thought provoking posts.
In His love,
Tina

I was amazed to discover your blog (even after Dena Johnson had told me about you) and then to “happen” upon this particular blog just when I’ve been thinking all the same things about which you wrote. Thanks for the encouragement to actually put into action that which has been merely thought.

Thanks for the great tips! I am pretty organized and purge frequently (I have had to re-buy stuff I got rid of because I ended up needing it)but my house and my health have been swept aside this season due to visitors and a lingering sickness. To start the cleaning!!! WHooohooo!

Linda,

Oooooh…a recycle party! I suggested this to a friend once, that we needed to get together and trade toys before Christmas. I feel like toys go through our house like a revolving door. We’ve already bagged up some from Christmas–already not working right, or whatever other reason.

A friend of mine transplants off-shoots from her beautiful houseplants into salsa jars. Sometimes she gives them away (Christmas next year?). She makes a band to go around the top of the jar out of wire and electrician’s little nut shaped things and attaches small chain to it for hanging. So cute!

When you clean out your closet, I am hearing about ladies hosting a “Party” where everyone brings the closet cuties that they don’t want anymore (clothes, purses, jewelry and other accessories) and just “shop” from eachother’s pile. Kind of a fun way to get together and recycle. The leftovers can go to the thrift shop.
