Crazy Christmas to All and to All a Good Night

Forget saying, "Merry Christmas" - I'm going to start saying "Crazy Christmas".  Can you imagine: "Crazy Christmas to All and to All a good night!"?

I'm organized (obviously) and it was still crazy.  Glad it's 1/9, my kids are in school, and I can get back to doing what I like - organizing!

It's Container Store's favorite month, too.  Elfa Sale!!  [On a total side note, I was hanging last week in the aisles of The Container Store checking out some new products and getting a new DVD holder - thanks Santa for the new movies! - when The Container Store employee told me I had very organized tendencies and that I should consider working there.  :-) ]

I'm using this blog today not to share any exciting organizing trends or projects, but to tie up some loose ends from 2011 and bring Simple Spaces right into 2012!

1) The website www.simplespacestexas.com is no more.  You can find all the info you want (soon) here!

2) The Facebook tips of the day are (almost) all ready - they are only on weekdays and most are accompanied by a photo - many times from my very own home.  If you have tips, I would love to see them and I will be sure to add them.  I spent much of my 3,245 mile Christmas ride working on the tips and getting them organized into a fashion that works for each month:

January – Kitchen/Pantry

February – Adult Bedroom/Closet

March – Home Office

April – Garage

May – Tips for Moms (and Dads)

June – Playroom/Game Room/Living Room

July – Kid’s Rooms

August – Calendar/Back to School (include tips on birthday cards, backpacks, meal planning, etc.)

September – Bathrooms

October – Laundry Area/Mudroom

November – Holiday Planning (hostess gifts, gift lists, etc.)

December – De-cluttering/Donating for 12/31 Tax write offs

3) I really really want to use this blog as I had hoped to originally.  If you have a question, and need some help, let me know (snap a few photos) and I will anonymously give you my opinions, offer suggestions, and hopefully help you out!

Until then - Merry January to you!
